Work Post

5:25am - I was in bed earlier but I'm too restless to sleep. I've found a job ad that sparked my interest and I've decided to apply, but the anxiety is pretty rough. I'm pretty sure I'm capable of doing the job, but I'm not so sure about my ability to get the job, you know?

Anyways it's a paid remote internship. They advertised it as not just for students; it's also for those who have an employment gap, which hoo boy I haven't really had a job since college, either time. I've already put together a new resume just for this application, using some online guides for tech resumes so that it'll be read properly by automated resume scanners.

Even if this doesn't work out, though, the very idea that there are internships that aren't exclusively for students is new to me, and maybe I can find another one later on. For now, I'm focusing in on this one.

I'm very nervous. I've asked my job developer to help me with it, though this time I'll be doing the actual application myself. We'll be doing it on Wednesday.

I don't think there's anything I can do in two days that will beef up my chances. I feel like I should be doing something, but I don't know what.

I opened up this Work Post thinking I'd put together some fancy app or do some prepatory reserach or prepare my website and such... But I think it's way more important that I just calm the heck down. Anything last minute and rushed would be half assed or just plain impossible to complete.

5:44am - So I guess that's it for now...
