If I had a dollar...

$2,000,000 and counting! I don't know why people think it's so easy to get a job in I.T. Sure, there are lots of opportunities, but wouldn't that be an indicator of the difficulty of landing a job in the first place? Think about it: If a job is easy, lost of people will get that job, and there won't be many listings readily available.
So, if anything, the ease of getting a job is proportional to the number of listings for said job.

Also, if you're wondering where I got the statistics from:

No Longer Available

It happens more often than you think. And it's no less disappointing disqualifying for a job position before you've even applied for it. Although, I do admire the speed in which I'm informed about my failure instead of waiting 3 months just to be told I was *close* to qualifying. And that's if the employer even remembers to reply back about my application...

The Right Balance

Murphy's Law clearly states that "Anything that can go wrong will go wrong". Perhaps that's why I don't have a job yet (or ever); there are just so many things that can go wrong. Whether it's being too specialized, being under-skilled, not fitting in with the company culture or just simply not owning an Apple product (I lost a job interview because it was a requirement from an employer), it's no wonder why some people hate job hunting.

Career Plan leads to Dream Job

Inspired from a random pamphlet I obtained from the Careers Services at the university. Sadly, I don't have it anymore, but if there's anything I learned, it's that my career efforts were doomed from the moment I stepped foot onto the university premises.
