Aw, Maya sweetie, so sorry to hear about the bummer of a job interview. Sounds like a lot of negative/weird vibes at that place; I think it would be stressful working there. I wish you the best of luck with Anthro! I can totally see you designing for them

Given the current jobs market and the competitive nature of your industry many people will take an indirect path to reach their dream job. Anthro may provide you with job security while you continue your search. Anthro may also provide more inspiration for your portfolio and I wouldn't be afraid to ask if you can submit pieces to the design team for appraisal.

p.s. they are perfectly adorable shoes. I love them.

Maya, I'm sorry to hear that the design job interview was so weird, but I wish you LOTS of luck for the Anthropologie interview. What day will it be?
Also, that is awesome that you found such comfortable and cute shoes for $25. Yay for shoes that don't kill your feet!

Good luck Maya, please remember this is just a side step on your way to that dream job. I'm sure you will blow the interviewers away!
