a summer job?

One of my relatives kept bugging me on FB page about what kind of jobs I will be getting and the hours and paid when I just don’t want to tell the whole world about it right now. Seriously, I don’t even know if it is for me yet!! I do not want to explain details about it if i’m not even sure if it is for me. She could just inbox me instead of kept writing on my page. -_-. Jeez! 

so i did get offered a marketing job in my town after having an one hour group interview. Other applicants were all college students, some just graduated from HS. We were listening and answering questions while getting to know about the positions during the interview. It is basically, promoting/advertising brands and certain sales via reports, media& word of mouth. The whole interview and hiring process also gave me a really good impression, and I have nothing to lose. When I came home, I did a lot of research about the company, even some of the employers’ information or background if I can find any. And I found both positive and negative views on the company, but i found the people from the company do have their genuine, positive professional reputations and images. That’s for sure. That’s what also made me feel a lot more secured and comfortable! There will be negative views because the job is not always for everyone. Everyone has different expectations when they’re looking for a specific job, so they may find out at the end that it is actually not what they are looking for. And the job just has something to offer. I also talked about it with one of my friends when I wanted to know more feedback from the people i know. He also told me that it is a good start, and the opportunity is just as valuable as my college education. I really have nothing to lose. That made me feel pretty good about it. Why not give myself a chance to try it.

Getting to know more about the summer job, I am mainly trying to gain experience, simple is that. It is a paid job. $17.50/hr. And I would be doing four to five hours a week as a part time. I am also taking one summer session at SRJC, and tutoring ESL at the writing center. So far I like the schedule that is given to me. As of right now, I still can’t make sure how I feel about the marketing job until I attend the weekly training day. I am actually looking forward to it, because I would like to find out if I can really do this or not. Other than that, the position will definitely help me better myself, improve some of the skills, and overall it is just a good start.
