Two a day

Mr. J informs me that it is a bad time to apply for jobs since it is the end of the quarter; also, the holiday weekend looms, so no interviews are likely to be scheduled. Still, I got onto Craigslist this morning and immediately found an interesting temporary position. I would love a temp job, despite lack of needed benefits. The job was so new it wasn’t even on the company website which made applying more tricky; however, I fired off an email with resume, then got an email back which allowed me to register on their site, which I did. They had my resume saved, so I just had to append a cover letter and fill out my profile. It’s a legal assistant job, so that makes it even more exciting to me. Then, I jumped back onto Craigslist for another go, and clicked on an operations/research job. Operations was my first good job; I love back office and research work; why wouldn’t I look for that again? Even better, I got an email back asking me to take an online test, which I did. This is something new, but seems like an efficient way to screen applicants. I certainly didn’t ace the math questions; I can do math, just not super fast at it. Not really sure how I did…but, it’s a numbers game, and I did my two a day.
