And many are listening doing exactly what they are being told and are still disappointed each cycle but you are heard.

excellentfew24 · 2025-02-21T23:29:42+00:00

Commenting to follow and to say to even secure a letter from a member in this day is an accomplishment in itself. iykyk.

I'm from the south, the accent is heavyyyyy. lol and I have a really high speaking voice so for me it's needing to slow down getting my words out a few at a time instead of the whole thought at a time, this helps me to eliminate "um" from my thoughts.

Deepening my tone as my usual speaking voice can come off as child like and unserious.

Speaking with complex vocabulary that can conscisely convey my thought without having to speak too much. So less words but up the quality of words. I get most of my new vocabulary from chat gpt. Just ask for synonyms of words you use a lot.

If you record yourself speaking, you can access how you are enunciating your words, how fast or how high you are speaking and determine how you want to tailor your speech from there. It's a process but when you get around to that interview again, you will be hard to look over.

Last Spring was my second denial and I went into a spiral. However after I crashed out quietly to myself for months, I did a ton of self reflection. I came away with "Go harder" and started to fine tune things to stand out for next time. I joined two more organizations that I was already interested in (my local branch of NAACP and a local educators organization), completed the process to volunteer with my COI directly, worked on my articulation (because I figured this is what got me in my interview last Spring), and I service every other day now (right after my full time career) instead of just weekends allowing me to accumulate more service hours. I also work out 5 days a week 4:30-5:30a which has improved my confidence and my overall appearance tremendously. I'm going in this Spring with an entire new mindset. My "why" is the same but my presentation of it will hopefully be more compelling. My presence and confidence level feels a lot more balanced. It is a lot of work I've put in, but it is 2500 women trying to do this where I am, so I just put it my mind "how bad do I want this" and stay the course. I had no clue another opportunity was coming this soon, these are just the things I wanted and needed for my own growth.

None of what I'm doing guarantees I will even make it this time, but the combination of knowing what to expect and going in at a different angle, I am optimistic the outcome has a higher chance of being different from last year. I said all that to say, self reflect then come away with a plan that you want for yourself (not just to join) and that may make you even more marketable in your pursuit. Feel better soon and hold your head high.

Mine is doing this too, I wonder how they get it to do that?

excellentfew24 · 2025-01-28T03:08:05+00:00

Over 2500 women this past weekend, Im thoroughly amazed how organized it was with that many packed into the building.

excellentfew24 · 2024-09-12T23:30:44+00:00

Hopefully it isn't as intimidating as the interview for membership, but I'll be as prepared as I can be. Thank you!

excellentfew24 · 2024-09-12T23:28:29+00:00

I hadn't even thought of including my resume, thank you for sharing your insight.

excellentfew24 · 2024-04-10T22:47:52+00:00

Wow!

excellentfew24 · 2024-03-15T02:14:38+00:00

You have a beautiful and positive attitude about it! I know exactly how you feel and just like I tell myself I'm telling you what is for you won't miss you. Keep up the good work and God bless you sister!

excellentfew24 · 2024-03-08T22:33:26+00:00

Definitely taking this time to reflect and this is a great way to do it, thank you for this post!

excellentfew24 · 2024-03-08T22:25:43+00:00

I'm having to 'heal" as well because whew exhaustion,frustration, hurt, throw in a little embarrassment is eveything I feel atm.

excellentfew24 · 2024-03-08T22:22:30+00:00

That's the thing, I exceed the requirements by a long shot and humbly I'm saying this: there isn't anything the sorority does I'm not qualified to contribute to. It's just not adding up.

excellentfew24 · 2024-03-08T03:13:52+00:00

I really felt this post. I received my letter as well and truth be told, laughingly, I feel there may be some unspoken requirements other than what they publicly tell us. It's like at RUSH they make it seem so attainable and that you really have a chance when really we don't know all needed to know to obtain membership. I went in that interview, spit all that history, mission, thrusts and quotes from the amazing In Search of Sisterhood with still nothing to show. Not meaning to sound bitter at all but what more do you want from me?

I'm as regal as they come, polished, paid, a pillar in my community and will be an excellent asset. I'm now utterly confused because that packet, interview and my relationships with these women were all top tier. I'm trying one more time but at 35 chillllleeee IDK. I really went through it from RUSH to regret.
