What? No take-backsies!

So before I left, this company called me and asked if I could come by the following day for an interview. Because of a family emergency I couldn't make it in, so they asked me to do a phone interview. I left thinking it'd be amazing if it worked out, but I was able to check my email some time later to find this:

Maybe it's just gotten to the type of situation where if you aren't an exact fit for their company...if you don't have the exact experience they're looking for, in the time period that they deem appropriate, you're SOL.

Ouch, that one hurt



That one did hurt. But don't you fret, young fish.  The world, is still, in fact, your oyster.  Dooon't stop...dreaaaaming!

But...I want to promote sustainability and design...

After attending UC Berkeley, you are sure to gain a love for sustainability and the environment around you.  You want to help change the world, and so what do you do? You apply for up and coming companies that promote that same ideology that encompassed you when you went to school.  You are sure that coming from such a prestigious university, any company would love to have you on their team, nurture you into their family of corporate individuals and teach you the way of corporate responsibility.  But sometimes...things don't always go as planned...
