It happens

Hi, Cheri.  Something similar happened to me recently.  I was notified that I didn't pass a test for a national company.  It was a computerized test.  I knew I had done a pretty good job on the test.  The recruiter said I had made too many errors but I couldn't access the test to see what they were.  I was really feeling down for a day, then got a phone call back fron another company I had tested with where they said I had done a great job on their test, and they were offering me a much better position than company #1.
