Bah...

... today I had a job interview. I think I did OK but we will see what they say when they get back to me next week. The funniest part was the compulsory personality test which pretty much proved my "fears" to be true. I doubt that you, dear readers, are interested in knowing every little detail about my personality, so I'll just tell you that my role in a group is that of an advisor or negotiator. If we talk about jobs, I seem to be on the completely wrong track: apparently I would be a suitable psychotherapist, psychologist or social worker. Hmm... How do you combine that with languages and Russian foreign policy?

I know these tests are no absolute truths, but I find them quite helpful, especially now that I'm seriously trying to figure out my future career. 

Funny fact: in Valencia I applied for lots and lots of jobs, and got called to two interviews in the course of almost two years. In this forest with a population of 25,000 people I have applied for three jobs and two have already asked me to go for an interview. Crazy or what?
