Rejected



After sending my Cv of to 4 clubs who are looking for a manager I got a reply from three clubs within 24 hours.


The First one was from Everton and what they said was.
Unfortunately your job application was unsuccessful we feel there are a lot more managers out there with better Cv’s than yours and your age also came into account we feel you are much too young for the position. But what we can do is give you a role as a coach. If you would like to talk more about the matter please Email us at [email protected]. Thank you.


The Second One Wigan.
Thank you for your recent interest in are advertisement for a new manager. But we are looking for a manager a little bit older and more experience. We will keep you on the shortlist for later dates if anything comes up. Thank you.



The Third One Napoli
Thank you for replying to are Job application to become the manager of Napoli. We see that you have played for a good team and even made played for Portugal. But even with that we need someone with experience so we are sorry to say your application is unsuccessful and wish you the best.



Maybe I am not cut out for this I played football but that does not mean I can manage it. I thought with my back round I could maybe get a chance. I know if I was giving a chance I could become a great a manager and win cups with my teams.( Awwww) who am I kidding maybe it’s just a dream that I can keep dreaming about.

The next Moring I wake up and go out on my run seeing all the friendly Faces put a smile on my face. I go into my local shopping Centre in Lisbon, The Local always something there to do as I go into O’Brian’s to get a sandwich my stomach making noise’s I order a Chicken Lettuce red onion and cheese. As I sit down to eat my phone goes off, I look at it and it’s an email from Dortmund, I thought another No so I did not open it.
Another rejection?

... Or is it? ;)

Interview



When I get back home I sit down and start the fire put my feet up and an ice pack on my Knee, I take out my phone and look at that email. This Is what It said.

Mr Alberto Thank you for you email.. And in response to your job application we would like you to come in for an interview on the 1 of June at 9.30. if you can’t make it please lets us know asap so we can change it to what suits. Looking forward to seeing you.

I can’t believe it I got a job interview in Germany now to book my tickets and get my passport, I cant believe this am I dreaming I look over and over the email to make sure it is really happing with just 8 days to go I need to get ready.

The Interview



As I make my way towards the Stadium for the interview I start to get flash backs of my playing days, and I think to myself I hope I can do the same all over again but as a manager. I am nervous and scared at the same time, think what if I mess this up. But I have to go in there and be 100% true with what I say and show them I mean business.

Michael Zorc
Alberto so good that you could make it. Hope you had an easy time getting hear.

Me
Hi Michael, I would not miss this for the world..

Michael Zorc
That’s good now please take a seat we will start the interview.

[u]Michael Zorc
Now Alberto us hear at Dortmund are looking for a man to take control of the team and move us forward why should that man be you.

Me
Well I feel I have a lot to offer to the club, I know what football I want to be played, I am Respected By some of the staff here, I would know them well also. In terms why should that man be me. That’s simple I am a man on a misson I know I can be the best thing this club has ever had, that runs true my blood and I will not take shit from anyone here if I am giving the job I will want 100% backin from everyone so we can push forward.

Michael Zorc
Ok In terms of players what do you look at is it youth our older players.

Me
I look at both I feel the youth players can learn a lot from the older players and how to learn this is to play alongside them and watch how they do it.

Michael Zorc
If you get the job what can we expect of you as a manager.

Me
Well I am not going to lie I am young and this would be my first Management job so there will be mistakes but I can tell you this the team will win cups and I can back my life on that.

Michael Zorc
Ok Alberto that’s all for now. We will let you know in the next 72 Hours what we have decided thanks for coming in.

Me
Ok and thanks again for giving me the chance, if picked I can tell you this I will 100% to the club and my life will be to win the big cups.

As I left the room I thought to myself that went well I did all I could do. Now I just have to sit and wait and keep my fingers crossed that I can get the job.
This story looks interesting, good luck!
A very good start mate definitely got my interest :) good luck with the BVB job
