I remember about two years ago, I had been a team member for over two years with Target, and I wanted to see if there was any opportunity of being promoted or developed to a team lead. I wanted to do this because not only would I be getting paid more, it would be a good thing to have on my resume for when I graduate college. The whole process of trying to be promoted was so rocky for me and I didn&#8217;t feel that anyone wanted to take the time to help me develop some leadership skills. I didn&#8217;t want this to be forceful in anyway and I wanted upper management to believe that I could be a great leader some day. After a couple months go by, I had an interview that I thought went well. The person that interviewed me is someone that I thought potentially didn&#8217;t care for me or believe in me, so I was already expecting her to tell me that I wasn&#8217;t ready for the position. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After hearing that she thought I needed some more interview prep and time developing, I interviewed with a different company for an internship position to do later that year during the summer time. I was able to do well with the 3 interviews that was required for the position and it has turned into a career opportunity for when I graduate in June. I believe that being rejected for Target, truly set me up for the best possible opportunities. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Why does compensation affect employee decisions: I believe that when I have been declined from certain offers, I tend to thrive off of rejection.
