Another rejection letter...

I think its the 8th one within the past couple of months, I think I'm unemployable.

Keep at it. It's hard for a lot of people to find employment.

Tofu_Rok on Oct 21 '05 at 10:38am

yeah I keep trying, I don't want to boast however, looking at other student works I think I'm far better than them and yet they're employed:(

Brennando on Oct 21 '05 at 10:41am

You do have a part-time job, right?

xiv on Oct 21 '05 at 10:41am

maybe they dont like tofu...

Schadenfreude_world on Oct 21 '05 at 10:41am

What kind of job are you trying to get?

Tofu_Rok on Oct 21 '05 at 10:45am

yeah I have a part time job, I'm looking for graphic design/illo stuff.

What do you think is the problem?

abeadles on Oct 21 '05 at 11:43am

good luck tofu, im sure you will find something soon. I am really good dedicated designer too and it took me 3 months to find an awesome job... Look for stuff that they dont call design, but still is...like "marketing". What area do you live in?

I was sending out like 5 resumes a day ):

Tofu_Rok on Oct 21 '05 at 11:47am

I dunno what the problem is exactly, I understand the media industry is saturated 6 months ago. I'm trying to get experience but noone wants to emply me to get this in the first place.

gawd I sound like an arse but I'm fed up today, I thought I had a good chance too.

Ash Sammy on Oct 21 '05 at 11:50am

This day and age everybody wants to be a graphic designer or a DJ, but few are.

abeadles on Oct 22 '05 at 2:46pm

I want to be a tattoo artist, but im not ready to be that dedicated yet

gerpander on Oct 22 '05 at 2:49pm

Doing tattoos is easy, but dealing with the stupid customers is not.

abeadles on Oct 22 '05 at 2:50pm

Having my art on someone's body permanently is an awesome idea...

abeadles on Oct 22 '05 at 2:50pm

But my drawing isn't tight-enough yet

Don't get discouraged, it took me forever just to find an internship. Thankfully they asked me to work full time once I graduated. You can never send out too many resumes. And make sure you call and thank them for the interview the next day. It worked for me. :)
