I FUCKED IT UP! BUT I WILL MAKE IT UP AGAIN!
Finally, I have made up mind to join you folks, after months’ struggle between work and study. Thanks to my buddy, I come to know the great website, chasedream.com. It’s so informative, updated, friendly and cool. Learning so many folks have finished the first step to their career goal, I am so much motivated and committed to follow their foot prints to achieve my dream.
Well, I graduated in 1996 with a bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering. After graduation, I had been with one of the largest food manufacturing company in the world for 3 years before I moved to another reputable US company. In the end of 2001, I came to Canada, as an independent immigrant. Like most of the other new comers, I started my life here right from the bottom of the society. Fortunately, I landed my first professional job in the 10th month. The hard work to find another job didn’t work out. But I short-lived this one and lost it in 3 months. After that, I had been trying to improve my job finding skills and to the interviews for any job opportunities. Luckily, I have got tens of interviews. But no job offer was extended to me, although I had passed some of them even to the final ones.
Of the interviews, one was with the company I worked for in China. I had very good chance to get my dream job after several interviews. But I just hate waiting, endless waiting between interviews. In June, I decided to start GMAT preparation as I would like to go to business school anyway, although I might not do it at that point since I could get a good job. However, I just couldn’t concentrate on the study as I need to put so much time to prepare for the upcoming interviews by the big noses of the company. I was so excited about the prospect of getting the job. However, I was told the position had been put on a hold when I was smirking. Oh, my God, I just couldn’t believe it. I put all my eggs into the basket, but it was dropped. What a big mess. The time, the effort, the hope and everything I put in went nowhere… I was absolutely lost.
When I was trying to find my way out of this big mess, another offer was extended and I took it right away. It was not the job I like, but it was a job. As expected, I lost it very soon. And I didn’t get another offer from the interviews I had been to when I was with the job. I lost my way.
I have been trying to figure out why I didn’t get a good job from so many interviews. I have good qualifications, I have good background, … and what’s more, my English is good. What’ was wrong?
Finally, I realized I should stand up and improve the situation by getting a degree in North America. And nothing but GMAT will lead me the way. So, here I am. It’s never too late to start to do something. I know application deadlines of most of schools are coming. It’s OK. If I can’t not do it next year, I will do it the year after. Life is going on, and I can still make up for what I have missed. I, with you, will never give up …
(Today, on Dec 1, I am going to finish my detailed study plan. My idea is to take the test within 2 months, realistically. And I am sure I will get it, with the support of you folks. And of course, I will give you my hands as well. Please give your comments. Let’s do it, here at CD. )
