Thanks Florian! I think I'm just one of those perfectionist types. I'm always looking at ways to improve. Maybe sometimes I need to stop and look back at what I've accomplished.

Perspective is everything.

I just really want to be a desirable candidate. Unfortunately, employers can't see how active I'm on in this community and others, and how passionate I am. The only impression they get of me is a silly resume and a portfolio.

I told you the positive side of that story. Before that I spent a lot of time sending resumes and all that stuff. Job hunting is stressful, god knows I hate It.

Don't give to it too much thought, in reality, you are dealing with normal people.

My advice is make it easy for them to know your qualities and skills, not the other way around, if you expect them to guess, well it's not going to go very good. But even that it's okay. Learning is a success/fail process sometimes. Just don't be afraid of failing.
