So I've just finished University.
All I am getting is rejection for jobs. Now I know everyone says competition is tough, it can take a long time, but my spirits are being broken by who is rejecting me. It is the most basic of roles, dare I say it the lowest for someone of my education. Both graduate schemes and normal jobs are rejecting me.
The normal jobs are quoting my lack of experience. Funny that, I can't get the job because I have no experience and I can't get experience because I can't get the job. These normal job roles are in my field. Lets assume there are 3 positions, mininum wage employee, unskilled, basic role. Then there are team leaders or assistant managers, then there are the managers. Now despite me degree I cannot even get considered for the middle one because of my lack of experience. What was the point of going to uni, it feels like it probably would have been easier to get a mininum wage position and slave away for 3 years in the hope of promotion. :dry:
I'm seeing figures in the press like 6 months after gruadating 10% are unemployed and 40% are in unskilled low paid no career positions.
I am not depressed anymore. But I was when I lived at home and worked mininum wage job. If that happens now having spent 3 years to rebuild myself getting a degree and social life I will crack badly.
I am going to crack very soon if I don't catch a break. Today I was rejected by my last real chance of getting a job in the town I went to uni in and therefore live with friends.
Looks like I am just another talentless moron who fell for Tony Blair's get the youth into higher education so they aren't unemployed Britain. I am also fed up with the hang in there, you'll be fine, the kind of bollocks that friends and people who care for you have to say because they don't really have anything else. Not that I am expecting anything else.
I also keep having nightmares, not like wake up scared one's, but in my sleep I keep getting the scenario where I end up with 2:2 on results day. If that happens I'll be more than pushed off the edge, that will damage my career and my pride after being in such a good position going into the final examinations. I'll collapse. 3 weeks until I get my results.
Oh well, its bad enough that my university life has ended, no longer with the people and independence that dragged me out of depression. It is only a matter of time before I fall back. I'm trying to keep busy, it works to an extent, thats all I can do right now, i'm just a sitting duck who could find himself in deep shit soon.
Rant over
:sigh:
