I GOT A JOB!!
Edited on Thu Mar-26-09 11:45 AM by Avalux
For those of you who rememember, I was laid off at the beginning of February. Well, I had an interview today and was hired on the spot! It's a great job in my career field and I couldn't be more excited!

Thanks to DU for the support - you guys helped to make the past 7 weeks bearable!

15. I'm really happy for you.
Still searching here, nothing in my field and doesn't look like there's anything out side of it either. One good thing though is that I'm learning the mortgage rework process and how to go through the government process for declaring hardship. I'll be an expert after this, if I'm successful in saving my home, then I'll be able to help other people through it. Emotionally, though I'm still a mess. Celebrate over a beer for me, and again. good going!

42. I hope I'll be making this post soon!
Found a printing place hiring for a pre press/design position. Small business that does a lot of cool stuff. Close to home, a sales woman from my last print job works there, and I'm almost positive the owner would know my old boss(who would give me a really good reference).

I got laid off in Mid January(3rd lay off since 2007). My fiance and I want to buy a house this year and get the tax credit, so I really need this!

Graduated college in 2007, not the best time to enter the job market.

Thanks for the support.:fistbump:
