So my hunt continues -- same as always. Check the job bank and other sundry websites. Compile custom resumes and cover letters and apply.
I did have one interview at Fastenal. And a phone interview with TD, which was followed with an online psych test. The Fastenal one kinda interested me, so I did some research on them before I went. Company sounded interesting, but none too fond reviews... albeit they were from ex-employees. When I went to the interview anyways. I've never had an interviewer convince me that this would be a company I would not want to work for. Within the 45 minute interview he informed me that the job would be a huge challenge as they've experienced huge losses in the area and it would be my job to turn that around; that they've had huge turnover in the past few years (3 in the position for the past few years and no employee with no more than a year); that I was continually "wrong" as I answered the questions. And when it came time for my second interview by phone with them I was supposed to call long distance. What kind of company does that?
Anyhow... still many irons in the fire, another interview coming and more closing dates coming - just crossing my fingers. EI still hasn't kicked in... but ah well.
I do need, however, to start really pumping my name around the highschools... I haven't had any for a while. Which will be kinda rough come mortgage day...
But still, this is viewed as a positive event all around. I will not look back with regrets or even any sort of vindictiveness.
