I sit here at my computer in my kitchen, wearing PJs and surrounded by Kleenex stained black with mascara. I came home sick from work, so the multitude of Kleenex is saturated with a combination of winter drainage and tears. The snot is from my cold, while the tears are from an extended, ugly crying session I\u2019m wrapping up, after learning that I didn\u2019t get what I thought was my dream job \u2013writing here is my therapy.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Here on my blog, I\u2019ve documented my struggle to find my second job. I\u2019ve loved my first job; I\u2019ve been teaching senior students at a single-gender school in the same city I attended graduate school. I deeply love the teaching and curriculum planning, but I have to do many, many tasks outside the school day. I have to chaperone prom, go on retreats and interview incoming students. All those evenings and weekends in addition to a full time job make me feel like I am missing my children growing up. So, as my own children get older, I\u2019ve begun to look for something more flexible that would allow me to focus on the aspects of my current job that fulfill me.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The job I applied for was also local\u2014it was a lectureship position at a small, private college on the other side of town. The application was extensive, including a teaching philosophy, 3 letters of recommendation and course evaluations. When I hung up after the phone interview, I didn\u2019t think I\u2019d done well but was pleasantly surprised when an invitation to interview on campus arrived just a few hours later. My on campus interview was a full day event, where I met with 10 members of the 20 person department, gave a teaching demonstration and went to dinner with the faculty. I thought it had gone exceptionally well and left feeling two things: 1) I had killed it and 2) I really wanted the job. Here are a few of the appealing things about the position: work from home 1 day per week, options to teach abroad, and a lighter course load than I have now. The next day, I sent follow up \u201cthank you\u201d emails to all the people I\u2019d met, and several of them replied enthusiastically with surprisingly complimentary statements.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I became anxious when the timeline promised to me came and went without a phone call from the department. Then this morning, I got an email requesting a time to talk about the \u201cstatus of the search.\u201d I\u2019d been dreading the call all day, and when it came, after some cordial remarks, the department chair let me know that they had offered the job to another candidate and had a verbal commitment from her.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I didn\u2019t cry on the phone, which I\u2019m very proud of. The department chair again talked in depth about how impressed they\u2019d been with me, how she wished they\u2019d had 2 positions and how much they enjoyed my visit. According to her, the search committee had concluded that the other candidate had more college-level teaching experience than I do. She suggested I get some experience adjuncting at a local community college before again applying to a 4-year institution.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I can\u2019t help but be frustrated with that critique\u2014I currently teach students that will be students at Yale and Princeton in just a few months. My former students have returned to tell me that they had covered all of their first year biology material during their senior biology course with me and were \u201calmost bored\u201d in their college courses. Finally, the feedback that I didn\u2019t have enough college teaching experience seems surprising at this stage in the interview process as my experience was clearly stated in my CV, which they\u2019d seen during the initial phases of the interview. I\u2019m also extremely hesitant to leave a full time, benefitted position in order to adjunct on the hopes it could lead to something in the future.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

So I sit here in my PJs, frustrated. My mom is texting me and encouraging me to quit my job and start a blog that documents the overhaul of my recent (and straight-out-of-1960) home purchase. I\u2019m calculating whether it would be inappropriate to have a glass of wine before the daycare pickup.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Today:<\/i><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

As I reread the post that I wrote back in February, I feel a combination of emotions. All the feelings I experienced on that day have resurged. Additionally, I feel embarrassed to share my deep disappointment with the Internet, but I\u2019m hoping someone else is going through that too and might feel some solidarity with me. Here\u2019s what I\u2019ve been up to since January:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

1)\u00a0Work:\u00a0<\/b>My work life has continued to be overwhelming. I spend multiple weekends each month at school, and I\u2019m coming off the heels of prom and AP testing. We are doing multiple rounds of interviews for a science department hire (I\u2019ll write about that experience in a late post) and I\u2019m chaperoning a student trip to Colorado this weekend. It is all way too much.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

2)\u00a0At Home:<\/b>\u00a0My husband was recently out of town for a whole month, so the kids and I have been eating a lot of mac n cheese. We\u2019re also currently living in the basement of our 1960s fixer while the floors and a new kitchen are installed upstairs. We\u2019re diversifying our diet by adding in some Chipotle.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

3)\u00a0Job Search:<\/b>\u00a0I reached out to a group at a university on the other side of the country that is doing curriculum development for high school biology teachers. They\u2019ve agreed to have me edit some neuroscience curriculum this summer on a contract basis. I\u2019m really looking forward to it and hoping that it leads to something more long term. I applied for another job at an elite private school, had an interview and didn\u2019t get the job (it wasn\u2019t a good fit, and I\u2019m not disappointed\u2014but I do wonder if I\u2019m just having bad luck or doing something wrong during the interview process).<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

4) Discernment:<\/b>\u00a0I am meeting with a career counselor that was recommended to me today, and I\u2019m hopeful that she will help me figure out both what exactly I want, and why I\u2019m struggling to land a new job.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I think the truth is probably that I want it both ways: I want to work part time, see my kids amply and have time for my life. I also want a fulfilling career with forward momentum, prestige and an adequate paycheck. So maybe I\u2019m chasing a unicorn? I\u2019ve not yet decided if it\u2019s a worthwhile pursuit.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
