Opening Doors
“Follow your hopes and dreams. Some opportunities come once in a lifetime. It’s better to try than always wonder what could have been.”
I had a phone interview today for a company abroad. I knew I was too junior for what they wanted, but I went for it anyway. I was seriously contemplating on not continuing that interview anymore. But I’m glad I pushed through with it. I had a nice chat with the company head. We were very honest with each other, she telling me my working experience was short of 2 years of what they needed, me telling her the same thing. Still the talk went beautifully and I was able to share some of my passions about advertising with her. I think it turned out pretty well. She did say that when the time comes for them to beef up their team, she’d give me a call. I said that was very much fine with me.
I’m happy the interview went well. I’m happy that she liked me. But most of all, I’m happy that I did go for the interview, even if some doubts were pulling me down last week. I never would’ve opened this door had I listened to those doubts in my head.
I may not have been meant to walk through THIS door, but I’m glad I was able to open it for awhile and chat with the person on the other end. I have a feeling a similar door will open for me soon. Hopefully, I walk through that door. Let’s wait and see.
