I Failed

I did not make it for the certification. In another word, I failed. 

I must admit I felt disappointed. Failing is not something I experience very often. The next thing that went through my mind was - how do I even break this news to the rest of my colleagues? Then again, screw it, it is not something that defines me and I should not be embarrassed about it. It is just a small blip and probably not something I should be surprise, considering employment act and legislation is not something I have to manage on a daily basis as I am a specialist and not a generalist. But whatever it is, it simply reflect the level of unpreparedness and that I have to accept it. It is just a little sour aftertaste for me as I had wanted this to be my swan song before I leave the industry. But I supposed it is not to be. I have written in to ask how I can take a reassessment. 

Until then, let's just move along.

    Sorry to hear that you did not get certified.

  3. Not the end of the world. Many certifications are hard to complete and the pass rates are less than 60%. Get as much feedback as you can about what happened. Where are your weak points? This will help you study for the retake.

    Don't view this as a failure. It's a temporary setback. Try again. I wish you the best!
