Lesson #4: An Open Door is A Company Score
You have been on the job for five years now. You come in every day at 8 a.m. and stay until well past closing time. You work hard, you work well, and you have never taken a sick day. So, when that better position opens up, you think you have a good chance of getting it. But, when your application comes back rejected, what do you do?
