The way I see it is, the aspects of the job that they said I'm not qualified for, I'm no more qualified for now than I was a month ago, so why put myself through that again?

But you're still there & the other applicant isn't.
And their fingers are now more than slightly singed.
This is not going to reflect well on them with their superiors as it is & they'll be damn sure that mistake will not happen again.

Its funny what people will overlook or change their mind for,when the pressure is on.

But then again, you're best placed to see the situation & in what way it may develop & i don't even know what the damn job is! :-D

That's my ambition in life, to be the 'best of a bad bunch' :)

Yeah, I see what everyone's saying. I must add that it's perfectly fair that I didn't get the job as I don't have the experience they want - but I do wonder whether there were other candidates who had more experience than me who might apply again. It just seems a pointless process to go through another interview etc as they know everything they need to know about me from the first one!

Even worse I am 1.8% off a first for this year yet I still have to resit an exam for a module that is in no way important and that we do not ever have to study again. :/

Annoying - or rather upsetting me now is the unfairness of life. Not me, I'm fine - but someone has just had a metaphorical truckful of bricks dumped on them from a height, and whilst they knew it was coming, and there was no way of stopping it, its still really sad.

It is SO HUMID this morning. It is gross. And my hair is a disaster.

After I tweeted this morning complaining about my hair, a friend tweeted me a pic of Monica with her massive bouffy hair in Barbados. It isn't quite that bad, but it's not great.
