Today Sucks.
After months of applying and hearing nothing back, today I received this:
Dear Shop Girl,
Thank you for your resume and covering letter in which you expressed interest in supply teaching opportunities with the Pretty City School Board. We review our supply needs on an ongoing basis and arrange interviews as required.
Due to the large number of applications we receive, we cannot guarantee if – or when – we will be able to offer an interview to you. It is unlikely that we will be in a position to add to our supply list in the near future. However, we will retain your resume on file for a period of six months and will give it all due consideration should our needs change.
In the interim, I would like to encourage you to monitor our website regularly and apply directly to any permanent or long term occasional positions that are of interest to you.
Thank you for your interest in our board.
Sincerely,
Head Honcho Hiring Man
I am just beyond disappointed right now. Today sucks.

If it makes you feel any better, that's the exact email I got from them when I first applied… 3 months later they WERE hiring and gave me a call. It's not great news for right now, but all hope is not lost! They will hire again soon I'm sure, and then you can wow them in an interview!

I'm so sorry, my dear!
It's true that things happen for a reason and blah, blah, blah, but if you need to feel bummed and disappointed today, you go right ahead.
And then pick yourself back up tomorrow.

Awww. I'm so sorry. I hate getting rejected, that is such a letdown. Hopefully Raendrop is right and you get hired in a few months. Keep positive!

Don't think of it as sucky – think of it as leaving you open to take the opportunity which is made for you! I'd call it an act of fate – you may call it an act of God, but either way fate/God has something in store for you, you just don't know what it is yet. Keep your chin up x
