so i tried to stand out by reaching out directly and it backfired badly
There was this on job i really wanted. so instead of just applying like a normal person, i went in to introduce myself to the person hiring. figured it'd show initiative, show i was serious, put a face to the cv.
She was polite about it. We actually talked for a good 20 minutes but then she started saying, kind of pointedly, how people come in or call up going i've got this experience, that experience thinking it'll give them a better shot, and how unfair she finds that. Said she looks at everyone's cv the same, weather they sent a cover letter, called ahead or showed up in person.
I knew she meant me. I was standing right there veing the exact thing she was describing. just had to nod along like yes yes.....
how should i salvage the situation here?
