After looking for months on-end, I finally got another job.....
If you didn't know...I got stuck for the last year and 4 months working for this damn company as a TEMP. It fucking sucked. I had no benefits, they were paying me shit, and they abused me. Well, I FINALLY got another job....and thank god it's direct-hire, better pay, and full benefits! I rock! KC, hold on there and keep looking! Don't give up, and try as many placement places until you get lucky. I got this job through an agency that found my resume on CareerBuilder, and I got the job offer one week after signing up with them. Oh yeah, if you're curious...the company is Worley Parsons. |

My suggestion, don't be afraid to try with placement agencies, but try to find ones that only do direct-hire stuff, or you'll get fucked like I did.

Remember, if the interview gets to a point where they're geting more personal with you and the mood relaxes a bit, it's a good thing! I feel a lot more confident on interviews after having been on like 10 of them LOL |

the best interviews are when the other folks just talk the whole time and tell you about the company and what it does...that usually means you're a shoe in
if they ask you ridiculous questions...the kind you don't want to answer...that means they're trying to qualify you and probably have other prospects -------------------- "Ah, y'know it's funny, these people they go to sleep, they think everything's fine, everything's good. They wake up the next day and they're on fire."
