6" to 8" of snow overnight tonight and until about 7 pm tomorrow. Schools are already canceled for tomorrow.
8track's weather that he's battling will hit here Thurs and Fri but expected to be mostly rain with temps between mid 30's and low 40's.
Another phone interview tomorrow morning with Avery-Dennison for Engineer role. My IT search for a good IT job isn't going as well as I expected. Opportunities for a new IT grad just aren't there in my area and the salary for a rookie is (understandably) pretty low.
Still sending out resumes for both the engineer and IT positions... Had a few offers. One I almost signed onto but they kept changing the scope of the position (after further review, this position is not going to work for me). Other one, was contingent on a contract.... contract issues ended up to make it a no-go.
I'll land something will land when it's a right fit.
Nearby state college has a nice position open for IT that I think I'd fit. I applied but they won't review resumes until the deadline (March sometime). Being a state job, they have to post the position to the public for a certain amount of time before they close the application process. Like most state or government jobs, they probably already have someone picked to fill the role. Someone internal or a brother, cousin, friend, etc.
Had some hits recently from some recruiters to fill a couple QC engineer roles. I'll play those out too. Had a phone interview on one of them on Friday last week and they want to do a face to face, but haven't heard back. I'm keeping my options open and want to pick something that is stable, challenging, and where I can make a difference. Something that I won't regret later on.
I'm not in a dire need for a "real job" but the Walmart gig served has it's propose - I've pretty much milked them as much as I can. I'm all done there other than coasting along. Since I finished school with the new degree, I'm not using my brain much or challenged much. School required some brain cells and it took some work. I want to get back to using my brain (or what's left of it).
