first "interview"

January 22, 2005 ive been going jobhunting crazy this past week..as in crazy. i applied for jobs around manila, Singapore, US and UK..and someplace else...hahahahaha! oh well, its free to send your resume right?

anyhoo, there's this online article writer job i applied for (jobstreet is surprisingly helpful) for a web marketing kind of firm...part of sending in your application is answering a 6-word question in 2000 words or less.

the question... "Describe briefly your standards of success:"

a simple question...so i thought...it took me a bit more time than i thought id take to answer that "simple" question. my first pseudo-interview. this can make or break me...it can either further intensify my fear of interviews or for once in my life, give me the BOD that i might be worth something.

so after much contemplation..this was what i sent.

success is not just about achieving something...it is about not settling for anything less than what you deserve and never limiting yourself in a situation just because everyone thinks that's all you can ever be. its about setting a goal where you know you can be happy and fulfilled, not a compromised dream. its about giving your all and more, defying limitations. success is proving someone wrong..and being exactly what and who you want to be.

i reread it about 5 more times (or more...), pointed on the submit button, closed my eyes and clicked.

that was easy..(*throb* *throb* *throb*) gaaawwwddd... pray for my soul. hahahahahaha! and what if that was real, one-on-one interview..i bet you my sorry ass id hide behind the table and tremble to death. huuuuuuuuuuuuu....

take me to the beach please...
