I applied for a really great job at a school on September 4th- deadline was the 6th. Applications didn't go directly to the school, but to the local authority. I didn't receive any confirmation of receipt so thought maybe I'll wait until shortlisting to see if I get a response. However, looking through my emails last night- there's an email deep in my spam saying that it's the wrong email address, so hasn't been delivered! I've checked the vacancy online, and it's the right email provided- the LA have obviously given the wrong information. Now the deadline is way gone, and I've missed out on this amazing opportunity for a job that I'm a specialist in- there's only 26 people in the UK with my degree apparently, so combined with my experience and passion, I truly believe I had such a good prospect of getting this! I feel like I'm destined for my current bar job, forever[angry][angry][angry]
