Will I find a career job at UCSF soon?

Question

I've been a temp. employee with UCSF for sometime now, and at one time I also, worked permanent, but had to quit because I wasn't happy with the job. Now that I've been temping or go to interviews, no one seems to want to hire me.

Answer 1

Yes.

Answer 2

It is easy to believe your limitations more than your competencies. It is important to enjoy your work, and if it takes a while to find a career that really works for you, does the timeline matter or does the career satisfaction matter more?

My advise is that if you are feeling unemployable, examine that and establish your response. Any false limitations you might have accepted? A false limitation becomes a truthful reality if repeated enough.

I can not find a permanent job because I am a temp.. Who wants to hire a temp?

Possible answers to reframe that:

* My experience as a temp required I learned to be productive and show results quickly- THAT is a competitive advantage.

* I am flexible and adjust to the work environment.

* If you worked PERM AND CONTRACT for the same company, emphasize that while you have a choice in work environment as a contractor, you choose to work for a company like UCSF, and you hope that in time, you are able to make a career job that allows you to ____ (whatever you like, aspire, or the real reason you want to work at UCSF, provided the answer is inspiring). :D
