Another Interview, Part One |
2003-04-30� �� 1:27 a.m. |
� |
Earlier in the month I applied for a marketing associate position. They got my basic marketing resume and the cover letter with the amended fourth paragraph talking about cross- and up-selling IBM products at my previous job.
A few days later I got an email saying that the position has been amended and that it�s a marketing assistant job. They included a laughable salary range. I would seriously make more selling snow cones by the lake this summer. No thanks. I at least would get to wear my bikini to work if I were selling snow cones. So last night I got a call form their recruiter saying that they are interest in me. Sure I�m talented, and I have worked with some large companies� But I have virtually no direct marketing experience. [shrug] The lady and I talk a bit. Nothing more than, �Did you work here? For this long? Your job title was this? And how much did you make?� Well, I�m going to mislead the lady. I have her email in front of me, I know I didn�t respond, and I�m telling her that I expect $20k more than what they�re looking to pay. But she schedules an interview anyway. Once again [shrug].
