As most everyone knows I have been looking for a job for the past six months or so and recently had a string of interviews, some good some indifferent and some right down crazy.
On Thursday I had a job offer and a fourth interview with a company (yes four interviews, that in and of itself is worth eight blog posts but I don't want to bore you with random details.) I was fairly confident that I was going to get the job offer with the company that I had my fourth interview with but that wouldn't come until at least Monday. I had spoken to the first company and told them I needed some time to weigh my options factoring in that I might have another offer on the table by Monday.
After a long night of hashing everything out Quent and I came to the conclusion that I would accept the offer from the company that offered the job on Thursday and move forward!
First thing Friday morning the phone started ringing (and when I mean first thing I mean 8:00 a.m., Quent and I had just gotten out of bed as he had the day off and we were up past midnight talking about what to do.)
Well the call Friday morning happened to be another job offer. This offer was for a company that I had interviewed with a few weeks ago and had been turned down. They suddenly had an opening as the person who had accepted the job had another job offer and had decided to take that job and move on as it paid more and was more of what she wanted to do.
To make a long story short I ended up accepting the job offer for the company who called on Friday morning so all the talking and no sleeping Thursday was for not because I ended up turning both of those jobs down. By Friday at 11:30 a.m. I had been to the HR office and was on the job!
Now for my job, I am working for the Box Elder School District and due to the nature of my job I can't really go into details on a public blog. If you're interested in what I'm doing send me an email and I'll fill you in!
