I turned down my Management training!!!

Dear (Recruiter),

I am very sorry to inform you I am no longer interested in the position. It is due to reading much of http://www.failingenterprise.com/, and the experience of employees in the company. You do a wonderful job and, I apologize dearly.

The job sounded very lucrative in the beginning, and if I hadn't had Management exp., an internship, and a decent degree I would've done it! Poor recruiter was cute sounding.

Just goes to show that numbers and phrases can be manipulated to reflect whatever you want them to reflect. Good job seeing through the crap. You're much better off.

Excellent! Thanks for letting us know. I'm sure this isn't the first time this recruiter has received a similar message.

You know... as much as people applaud the college grads who reject erac, how about actually helping him get a job or pointing him in the right direction? Oh wait... that would actually take more effort than the admin here stating his obligatory "go me" statements. *sigh*

Anyhow, actionj look online for your local staffing firms. I've had really good experiences with those in my area and tell them the kind of field you'd like to go into long term. They usually do both permanent positions as well as temp work. Go with temp if you're lacking experience for what you want and try to switch over to full time from there. Another alternative to that is also to go to a local university/college and try to find their internship center. Most of them will still take graduates in since their department makes more on higher level internships they assign out.

Hopefully that helps - Good luck job hunting.

I do have to agree with Realistic here. Having Enterprise is better than having NO JOB, NO CAREER.

Fantastic! I wish I had been fortunate enough to see this website before my interview. Trust me ERAC is not the only company willing to hire you.
