I can’t believe it’s been this long. I haven’t written anything about the books I have read in all this time, or of what’s been going on.
Well, I have applied for a Florida Teaching Certificate, but I am not holding my breath to find a teaching job here. My “only” chance so far was quickly taken away this morning, when someone else with an education degree and experience got the job. But I’ll keep looking.
I have applied for tons of jobs, and I keep getting the over-qualified letter with the exception of a handful of time when I have gotten the “not exactly what we are looking for” letter. But I keep looking. Actually applied to a job in Chicago, and if I get it then I’ll move back. I miss it so much already. As a matter of fact, I miss the Reg the most. I know, pathetic!
I took up knitting, but found that if you do it for too long – like whole days for week – you quickly tire of it. As I did. Nevertheless, I still have about 5′ worth of knitting to finish my new scarf.
I have a mess all over my desk from dealing with law school applications. Given the job situation (as in not having one), I have decided to wait yet another year. It’s expensive enough. In the meantime, I have created a database that will track the whole process; and while I was doing that I began cataloging all my CDs and MP3s into another database. You wouldn’t believe how many times I actually bought the same song. Or the CD and the song? Waste!
Other than that, my paranoia is at a low point, and I can’t wait to get out of here. No longer a one-horse town, Orange Park is still a very boring place.
Wow! You have a wonderful resume.
If you like languages; keep learning them. That’s awesome power.
You know, your resume makes it appear that you quit your jobs after three months or so.
You should emphasize on your resume that those jobs were temporary or short term, school jobs.
No one will want to hire you if they’re afraid that you’ll quit after a few months.
I’m sure that you’re smart enough to know that but the people processing your application may not consider that while screening your application.
Sometimes the people screening your application (frequently an office assistant) is told to eliminate anyone that quits their jobs too frequently. The person doing the hiring may never see your resume.
You might want to take your phone / address off of your on-line resume as a safety precaution.
Also, consider going to the library and reading up-to-date books on consulting. There are tips that will help you market yourself.
Good luck.
