@Cristina -

Thanks for the comment. One suggestion is to cast a wider net in your job search — becoming too attached to getting a job at a particular company is a recipe for disappointment. To get more specific tips, I recommend reading this blog post I wrote: http://lindseypollak.com/?p=562

Good luck!
