Today, I got frustrated looking for jobs and decided to take a quiz on best-fitting careers. My results speak for themselves. FML

A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

Time for a change
Today, out of sheer boredom, I took a career personality test. The "best match" for me was the position of funeral director. Not only do I have a promising future with death, I got genuinely excited at how accurate the result was. FML

Today, I filled out a 'perfect job placement' test, where you put down your skills, experience and education level and then it finds you jobs based on your abilities and areas of knowledge. No lie, the most compatible job they found for me was 'Dishwasher'. FML

Today, I spent two hours filling out an online application and questionnaire for a potential employer. The application stated that there were no right or wrong answers and to answer truthfully. I was automatically rejected. FML

Today, while waiting for an interview at the career that I've been spending months tailoring my résumé for, I was thrown up on by my only competitor. Guess who got the job. FML

Today, I took an online IQ test, even though I knew they give everyone unrealistically high scores. My score was 73. FML

Waste of time
Today, I went to a job interview. I never applied for the job, they'd sought me out, had a phone interview, and sent samples, all before the face-to-face interview. Turns out none of the people I met with had even read my resume or writing samples. I was told I might not be a good fit. FML

Notice it says to try again with adjusted expectations... but in all seriousness, one online quiz does not tell you everything about you or your potential.

That quiz is 1 of the most useless I've ever done. If it's any comfort, I already know what I'm doing with my life, but just did the quiz to see what it would make of me. It had 2 suggestions: hedge fund manager and president of the US. Lame!

Don't worry work is work, I've taken heaps of those tests and despite what they say interviewers seem to think otherwise. Maybe you are so well suited to so many things the test couldn't narrow it down. :)

Nothing can crush your spirits more than computer sciences calculating the fact that you are not good enough to get a job.

You have to go back and either broaden your answers or if they're too specific just go back and be more open minded about it, that's what I has to do

To be fair, living in your parents basement playing video games isn't a viable career option.
