Top 10 Ways Job Hunting is Like Dating


  1. You are really eager and excited.

  2. You get a hair cut, new clothes, new shoes, whatever to look your best.

  3. You practice what you will say.

  4. The whole time you are together you try to be a good listener but you are thinking about what you are saying, your posture, your breath, and their body language.

  5. A really nice environment makes things smoother. A dump makes you want to run away.

  6. All your friends and family bug you afterwards about how it went and you have to repeat the story in detail ad infinitum.

  7. You always have butterflies in your stomach before and after the meeting.

  8. You always think you really connected.

  9. You’ll always remember something that you think sounded horrible just before you drift off to sleep – and that will keep you up all night.



And the # 1 thing…

If they call right away they are too eager and clearly a loser
If they never call they were the one you could have had real magic with...sigh... the one that got away.
