I have truly learnt a lot of things from Comm299, such as interview skills, resume and cover letter writing skills, different kinds of skills. One of the most important things I have learnt and from which,I have already been benefited, is “Following-up”.
I applied for a volunteer position of 2011 orientation in January and I was informed by email that I have got the position in the beginning of March. There was a survey link in the email which due March 7th and I have to finish the survey by the deadline in order to keep my position and in order to get the chance to attend the training session on March 26th. Anyway, the truth is that I haven’t received any more information about the training session. I wait until March 26th and there was still nothing. I was upset. Sitting outside Irving, I found out the email they sent me and wrote a email to them to show my disappointment and my interest in the orientation. They told me it was because that I haven’t finished my survey so they replaced me. Well, I believe that I forgot to fill out the survey for some reason. Then I sent back a email and stated again that I am really interested in the position. Guess what, I just got the email yesterday. I got my Position! And, they thanked for my following-up!
Yep. Thanks to the Following-up! Thanks to Comm299!
