Sep. 25th, 2012 11:59 amSo I kind of got stood up for my meeting with the guy from Faro. He was supposed to email me last week to let me know when we could meet up when he flew into town yesterday, but didn't. I'm not going to stress out since I understand that things come up, but it has left a bad taste in my mouth.
And then I got an email late yesterday from the place I applied to on Friday, asking me to expand on my resume by answering a bunch of questions. :D Although there's things like "why are you looking for employment right now?" and I need to find a more creative answer than "I need money to pay for my astronomical student debt". Or possibly not.
I'm not counting the Faro job out right now, because I'd love to work on that project, but I need to be realistic. That job would require a 4 hour commute and life in two separate towns, never mind scary roads, gas cost, and wear and tear on my car. The other job is in town, and is entry level so providing me with the excellent experience that I need.
Oh, and a position opened up at one of the fly-in mines in the territory, and I think I'll send them off a resume, just in case.
We'll see what happens. I'm just amazed by what's happening, since I had just about given up finding anythign relevant until the spring. :D
