There is a Robert Half office in this area, I made the mistake of registering
with them one time when I was looking and all I ever got from them was one and
two day gigs like installing software for a client or something like that, and
they only wanted to pay extremely low wages with no travel allowances. If you
turn down a gig of any kind, then your registration is deactivated and you won't
hear from them again.

| Hang in there, Hatton. It always gets worse before it gets better... and I'll
bet you're almost over the hump.
|
| Do you have Robert Half Technology in your area? I got my job through them
when I was laid off by Quilogy.

| Okay, so I've been back on the job hunt for almost 2 full months (was let go
| August 12th) and have had 3 interviews for 77 places I've contacted.  I've
| now received 5 declination letters, two from places that didn't even select
| me for an initial interview.
|
| Now I understand that the market is tight but I'm wondering what the hell is
| going on with one of the places I interviewed.  I was told that I'm one of
| two candidates for the position when I interviewed and I received a letter
| telling me that I had not been selected (no signature or anything, computer
| generated PC crap).  In looking through the job listings on the Job Bank
| what should I find but the posting for the position I interviewed for almost
| a month ago (interview was on 9/20) with a posting date of today.
|
| I tried calling the HR person at the place and she's off until the 15th.  I
| don't have the director's information otherwise I'd be calling him directly
| reminding him of our interview.  In the meantime, I'm steaming.  No real
| reason to steam but it's been a very frustrating week on the job search.
| I'm beginning to wonder if I didn't royally screw myself over by trying to
| move back into the Electronics world and now trying to get back into
| software.  That plus the fact that I have to explain the last year beginning
| with, "that's an interesting situation".
|
| (*sigh*) I don't even want to get into the fact that now that fall/winter is
| starting to set in my ankle is starting to act up.
|
| Must find a beer and calm down now... it's after 5 o'clock somewhere ;)
|
| Until Later!
| Hatton
