[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 310903, member: 1233"] husband has been applying to 6-10 jobs per DAY since I started asking him questions. He even forwards me the listing - says it keeps him on track and from exaggerating. His friends at the employment service (he works sporting events through them and has become a favorite of theirs) emailed a job opening here in town. It is to run an insurance agency. Not to be a broker, and they SAY it is not sales, but..... At this point any interview is a good interview. The service feels it will be a "feather in their cap" if they can place husband because he has solid experience, great references, and is a great employee. They are right. :winking::winking: Anyway, I am not at all sure it is the right job, but at least it will be good practice. He even went and bought thank you notes today WITHOUT any nagging! (About a year after he went to work for his last company he met one of the very top bigwigs. The man really liked husband and he didn't even REMEMBER most of the employees. husband stuck in his mind because husband is the ONLY person out of over 100 hires who sent a thank you note. Some sent emails, but none wrote out a note by hand. So he is really on the ball with that now. We had some NASTY fights over sending thank you notes for interviews. I was right!!! As usual.:winking::cutie_pie::cool_dog: Keep fingers crossed that this is a decent job or will lead to a decent job. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
