The rude awakening usually is the span of time between graduation and an appointment, that is if the interview stage is seamless. If attempts at the limited opportunities for mass graduate recruitment fails, chances are that securing a job at all becomes increasingly a pipe dream. And to think there was once a dream job! * Mtcheeew *. Monday mornings are the worst mornings and Friday evenings are a respite. In between, surfing of job-sites or combing the streets for recruitment agencies and applying for relevant positions with doctored CVs to match serves a reply to a taunting conscience. Desperation. A recruiting  agency will find him here The week isn't any less frustrating in the alternative condition. 9 of the 16 waking hours are traded almost for free.
