Employment!

After five months of job seeking and many interviews, the wait is over. During the process, I learned a lot about myself and what I wanted in a future employer. In the end, I think that the employer that offered me a position is a good fit. My patience finally paid off.

When I interviewed, I had a welcoming feeling when I walked into the office. The owner of the company appeared to be very honest and yet very approachable. She asked a lot of the usual interview questions, but then threw in a couple that caught me off guard and made me really think on my feet. When I was given the opportunity, I asked a couple simple questions but then I wanted to know where she hoped to see the company in two years. She admitted that I caught her off guard. (I was worried I totally messed up.)

My first day is August 4th. I am super excited about learning all about L&I claims and reporting. So not only will this job allow me to use my current skills, but it will challenge me to learn new things from the beginning.

The girls just wanna know if this means we can get a pool. :-)
