Fed up with not hearing back from two businesses I wanted to work for, I walked to their physical stores and asked for a status on my application.
It has already been two weeks since my submissions.
Both applications were still under review.
And my need to act is being delayed by not working.
But one of the two businesses caught me by surprise.
Once I asked them about my application, they called the hiring manager and asked me what position I’d like. I chose one and they said I should receive an email with an offer letter within the next 15 minutes.
I walked out the store content and confused.
I assumed the process would’ve included an interview, or at least meeting the hiring team, but I was met with something far easier.
It’s an entry level position yes. But I anticipated it would be more difficult. It wasn’t.
I suffered more than necessary because I worried too much about it, not realizing it’s easier than expected.
Here’s my inspiration for the day.
