I am getting more than a bit frustrated and I hope that Hi everyone - I am getting more than a bit frustrated and I hope that you can offer some advice. My first position as an elementary librarian did not work out. In a nutshell, I was fighting a losing battle from the day I set foot in the building. The administration set me up for failure from the get go and things went from bad to worse. I knew back in March that my contract was not going to be renewed and I have been looking ever since for a new position. I have driven all over Texas to interview after interview (I've actually lost count how many) and still have yet to receive any offers. I honestly don't know why, the interviews are going very well, and I am very careful not to talk negatively about my former employer or seem desperate to get a job during the interview. I have no trouble getting the interviews but I just can't understand why it's taking so long. I have one more interview this afternoon and I am getting pretty desperate as a I am running out of time and options. Any insights/advice you can give me would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
