My Economic Times

So it has been a while since I have posted and let people know the update on my life.  I finally got a hourly paying job at 24 Hour Fitness as a Kid Club Attendant making minimum wage about 15 hours a week.  I love children and this job is amazing however it is still not what I want to be doing.  On March 25 I applied to 8 jobs at Centura Health.  This is an online application for Penrose and St. Francis Hospitals out here in Colorado Springs.  On March 26 I applied to 4 more come to find out 2 days later they did not select me for any of those jobs, jobs of which I am qualified for.  I have the experience and the CNA license to get the job done.  I also applied to 2 jobs as a Telemetry Tech at Memorial Hospital which those have been forwarded to the hiring manager so I am crossing my fingers.
     I want to know though why since technology has gotten better business's and such have decided to do online applications.  It is really hurting the people that are better suited for the job.  Sure I could lie on my online application and my resume but that is me however I feel like that is what other people are doing.  I should at least be given the opportunity to have a one on one interview.  This is so frustrating that the field I want to work in I keep getting rejected because they are too busy to personally meet with each applicant for that job.  ARE YOU SERIOUS!!!!

I hope you've been hearing back from more places. I have a love/hate relationship with the online applications as well. Best of luck to you though. Keep me updated and BLOG MORE! :)

I hope you get some calls back soon, that can be extremely frustrating, but the right and perfect job will come around and accept you and you'll be thrilled none of the others took you... :o) Good Luck!! Love you!!
