The last job I had to apply for was the job that I currently work at with Orange Media Network. Since this was an \u201con-campus\u201d job, I went through the schools website in order to find it. In relation to previous jobs I have applied for, this process was much simpler and smoother compared to others. The requirements included a resume, cover letter and a handful of essay questions. From the perspective of an applicant, it was very detail oriented while following step-by-step instructions.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
My journey through the application process was a little different than others, since I actually applied for a completely different position than what I received. My initial application was for an assistant station manager, which I quickly learned I was not fully qualified for since I hadn’t worked long enough. They felt as though my skills and qualifications would fit much better as a contributor for the magazine, Beaver\u2019s Digest. I had never pictured myself as a journalist or even someone who would work for a magazine for that matter. This shaped my impression of the initial job in a negative way at first, since the application process led me to believe that I would be a better fit for an assistant manager position. I ended up taking the position with Beaver\u2019s Digest, and come to find out journalism is a new found passion of mine. According to the text, \u201cwho <\/em>failures infect every aspect of our professional and personal lives.\u201d If the application process would\u2019ve led me to the wrong position, it would have been a mistake not only for the radio station, but for myself as well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The last job I had to apply for was the job that I currently work at with Orange Media Network.
