My Employment Search
I don’t know about how your life has been going since the economic slowdown. Hard times have befallen people for lots of reasons from losing jobs to having their mortgage foreclosed. I know I personally lost my job at an football collectibles store a couple of weeks ago. It’s been pretty tough, but I know a lot of people have had it worse so I really can’t complain. Since I had my revelation I spent a lot of time seeking a new job that would work for me. The other day I figured I’d consult the Internet and searched “find new jobs” into google. I was surprised that so many results came up, but I suppose the job market is big business in these times.
The first job I was considering doing was one helping to install hardwood floating floor, mostly because it paid $20/hour. I looked at the job requirements and sadly it was a bit more then I could do. They wanted someone with past experience installing floors and I definitely don’t have that. Heck I haven’t even lifted a hammer in like 10 years. I wasn’t disheartened and kept looking for more jobs on the net.
After that disappointment I thought the smarter plan would be to look for jobs I have done before. I began my search by narrowing it down to only jobs in middle level management or I figured I might even take an administrative assistant job. There surprisingly were a lot of those listed on almost every site I looked at. When I first started that search I thought that jobs would be in high demand and thus there would be few of them available. I checked these jobs out and the only real disappointment was that I am used to making more than the jobs paid.
I sent out applications to around 15 of the places I found on the internet and waited to hear back from them. I took almost a month, and I was really worried by that point, but finally I heard back from 3 places. Naturally I was quite excited and did my best to prepared and get looking good for my job. Sadly my first job interview didn’t the way I had hoped it would. I shrugged it off and chalked it up to the fact that I haven’t had to interview for a long while. The new interviews went a lot better and I really thought something could come from it. Yesterday I heard back from the place and I got the job! I was so glad that it worked out. Now I’m all set to start next week and couldn’t be happier. Find the Best Online Colleges Universities at BetterOnlineEducation.com
