388 Days

That is the number of days I was unemployed in Las Vegas. Starting on Monday, I go back to being an employed member of this city and society.

It has been a long time coming, and a rough year. Figures that as soon as this position comes through, I get word on another position I had applied to months ago. We shall see what happens as time moves forward. Having “too many” job offers is a much more positive “problem” to have than too few, that is for certain.


Promising Interview / Meeting

April 26, 2011 in General,Job Seeking,Las Vegas Unemployment | Comments (0)

Had a very promising interview/meeting two Fridays ago. The position would be a good fit for all parties involved.

Was offered the position, accepted it, the only caveat, the boss was told by the higher ups that a hiring freeze is in place. If there is room for an exception, I will have a job any day now.

Otherwise? The search will continue. With the increased interest in people with skills such as mine, I am hoping to soon help reduce the percentage of Las Vegas unemployed residents by a small, small percentage point. Every little bit helps in an improving economy.
