I have been jobsearching (this time around) for just over two months. I’ve read more books, taken an advanced programming class, applied to several dozen jobs, gone on four interviews, and been passed by for three of the positions I interviewed for. Intellectually, I know that in this economy, the fact that I’ve actually gone on four interviews (and been shortlisted for a few more positions where I didn’t actually make it all the way to the interview stage) is pretty darn amazing. But…it can really be dispiriting to keep hearing “Thanks, but no.” So yesterday, while waiting for feedback from a fourth interview and enjoying some of the first appreciable sun we’ve had in two weeks and trying not to pester the living daylights out of the recruiter who sent me to Interview #4, I was in serious need of distraction. Swatching things would have been one option, but since I really did need to be away from the computer (no feedback expected until today,) I did what just about any beauty blogger would do.
I went shopping. (Huzzah for coupons, BOGOF sales, and store reward systems!)
