Two out of Three elevators do not work in my office building, so it takes roughly an hour to get upstairs. Classic.
I work for an online advertising agency in NYC, but in order to expand my horizons (and actually do something from 9-5) I have been on the market for a new creative position for some time now. Evidently, it would seem that Coach is on the market for new designers, so I decided to send my resume in. However, I’m not expecting much because for some reason job descriptions always make it seem like the position is excellent for someone with no higher than a high school degree yet this is how the interview will really go:
Position for Sales Creative:
Me: “I have been a designer for about (x) years, as you can see on my resume I am familiar with design software such as…”
Them: “Right, I noticed it on your resume. We are also looking for someone who is familiar with XML, HTML, DML, DXTML, YTSXLOGY, -insert programming word here-”
Me: “oh…well I was under the assumption you were just looking for a creative designe-”
Them: “Well thank you for your time, we’ll call you when we come to a decision”
Great. So I am keeping my eyes and ears open
