March 14, 2008Day 47 - Eureka!

Miracle of miracles, it finally happened!

I interviewed for a contract position on Monday, took a skills test on Tuesday, and received an offer for the position on Thursday. It was difficult not kissing my cellphone when the offer came through.

I start the job next Wednesday, after I get back from my out-of-state interview. I also had an interview yesterday — one for a permanent position that would eventually require a move. One thing my job search has made me realize is that, while my current living situation worked perfectly for my previous job, just about anything I find for my new job will either mean a ridiculous commute or finding a new place to live. I'm not particularly enthusiastic about this prospect, but having a job will make up for it.
