I had two interviews ghost me this past week. One was for the better because it honestly was a total last resort application, like many others I’ve put in the last few months, the other was an NGO that I’ve always wanted to work for. Let’s just say there was a very good response from the NGO about what happened to my missed phone interview. I go in next week to get the particulars and hopefully get this job. The boss man who called me to make up for his subordinate was really insightful about the position. I explained to him that this was an organization I’ve always wanted to work for yet have never seen the position available before. He literally said to me that due to “what are they calling it? The great resignation?…(yes)..we have a huge worker shortage” and with that folks please, take it from a pessimist, go for your dream job (yes they exist and mine is to do good in the world while earning a paycheck) don’t just do unilateral switching just for a little bit more. If you always wanted to work for a good cause, the good fight, the hard work that needs to be done- nows the time to look into NGOs and non-profits and all the do gooders.
