Argh, graduate employment!

Graduate employment is the bain (hhahahah! Bain! Get it!?! If you don't you obviously haven't been riding the Grad App merry-go-round to its fullest extent!) of most final year uni students at the moment. I visited a church of uni students last Sunday and it was great that I had this immediate bond with people!

Like I blogged about a few posts ago...I just don't think my approach is right. I just very very very hastily submitted a CRAP application to Q@ntas purely for the sake of it. What's the point of doing that!?! Honestly, it's just to make me feel better, so I can say that "hey...at least I tried!" And what is the point of that!?! At the end of the day, I'll end up with a rejection notification (if lucky, a letter!) and an hour I could have used more productively on my stagnant IIP assignment.

I have great admiration for those who might be seen by some as "putting all their eggs in one basket". People who know what they want and go for it single-mindedly. On the other hand, I thought around this time last year that that would be me - seeking out employment in a small/medium firm to do Family Law and I would be saying a big fat "Screw You!" to all the big fat corporate law firms...but working in one of the aforementioned big fat firms over Summer really changed that attitude.

Which brings me to the conclusion that....I don't think I really know what I want. And as such, I should just apply for everything just in case it ends up being my true vocation!

And as a friend remarked to me...rejecting job offers would be blissful!
(Not that I like my chances, but hey, one can always dream!)
