    Applying For Post Grad Jobs As Told By "Parks & Rec" GIFs

    If only you had a Leslie Knope ring binder to help you.

    You start out so optimistically, everyone is surely going to want to hire you.

    You begin to search the job sites, and are overwhelmed by the options.

    You eventually find a job you want to apply for, and send off the best application ever.

    You repeat this process over and over, applying for what feels like every job on the planet.

    You get annoyed that some companies aren't replying to you.

    And you start to think employers actually enjoy rejecting you.

    You begin to worry about how you will ever pay off your student loans.

    Until you finally get invited for an interview.

    So now you obviously need to find the perfect interview outfit.

    You get your friend to help you prepare.

    Now it's the day of the interview, and your nerves start to kick in.

    You know this interview is your chance to prove that you are far superior to the other candidates.

    You impressed them, now they just need to check your references.

    After the longest wait of your life, you've just about convinced yourself you haven't got the job.

    ...then you get the call - success, they want you!

    But remember: Do not to let your new job change your priorities...
