Job hunting

pulsarnc
well i had a job interview this morning. it is for the state of nebraska at the omaha correctional center as a plumber. i think it went pretty well they said that they only had 3 people to interview as of now, so my chances look pretty good. as soon as i got back from the interview i got a phone call from the city of omaha to schedule an appointment with the public works department. i took the test a couple of weeks ago and there were about 200 people taking the test only 121 passed. they rank you according to your score and i am ranked #12. i think they are looking for about 25 people for this job. wish me luck.

    I will have an MBA in December and have been doing a bit of job hunting lately.

    I really want to work for the government and had two interviews this morning. One with the BIA and one with SSA. Both look pretty promising. As soon as they heard I want to be a government bureaucrat and live in rural SD,ND,WY,MT they were all over me. MBAs can make much more money in the private sector and most don't want to live in rural areas so they were all over me.

    Also had an interview with a major retailer (not wal-mart) as a corporate management trainee-this one was really good and they already started talking a starting wage! If the government stuff don't pan out I may go this route.

    Talked to Cabela's and could jump into their management trainee program also but I would have to move to NE[xx(]


    This is very uplifting as all the part time jobs I have applied for lately I have not got.

    Even a blind pig can find an acorn sometimes- I can smell one close by![:D]

    My wife has been out of a job since February and has had no luck in being hired elsewhere. She searches everyday on the net and has sent dozens of resumes with a few interviews. She believes her age (58) is restricting her opportunities.

    I agree with her, they will never admit it though.

    Thanks for the thought Gearhead. No , no experience on industrial sales . My former profession was as a staff trainer in a mental hospital. The gun shop was one of two part time gigs in retirement . The other is maintenance at the volunteer fire Dept I am a member of . Just looking for something 8 or 9 days a month
