“I am a Technical Engineer and 2 years ago I was looking for a job in my industry. I found a Company that was a perfect fit for me, applied for an Engineer position, but my application was declined as they required one more skill which I didn’t have at that time. I could learn that process in 3 weeks, but the General Manager of the Company that interviewed me explained that they were growing fast and didn’t have time to wait until I learn the process. I took another opportunity and in 2 years that Corporation went bankrupt, so I was in a job market again.

I posted my resume on boards and sent application to the Companies I liked. After a few weeks I got a very interesting offer from a Company that had recently appeared in the market. I decided to decline that offer as they seemed to be not the best match for my skills and experience as I was already a Senior Technical Engineer/ Lead and was looking for something more serious. What a surprise it was when the CEO of the Company appeared to be the same man who rejected my application 2 years ago. However this time he was begging me to accept their offer as they were looking for a specialist with some particular skill. It was the same skill that they required 2 years ago, but I was already one of the leading professionals in that area.

I was curious about how that man was able to become a CEO of another Company and he told me that when they rejected me 2 years ago they hired another specialist who in fact wasn’t able to cope with his duties and that was one of the reasons why they got closed. The General Manager and some Engineers decided to start their own business and founded a new Company. Now I successfully work for this Company as a Sr. Lead Engineer, everything goes well in our business and I know for sure that dreams can come true, even in 2 years.”
