    I Got The Job!!!

    Hurray!!! A month ago I applied for a job for a Company based in Denver with offices here in Atlanta. Late November I did a simple phone interview and yesterday I did a face to face interview with the Hiring Manager and the heads of the department. They reacted very well to me and were impressed by my experience/knowledge, especially because of my age.

    Today I got a call and they said after 4 months and 97 interviews they decided to bring me on to fill the position!!!

    I'll be doing Internal IT work, mostly hardware but plenty of software. I will be issued a Laptop and an iPhone. I'll get full benefits + overtime, paid time off, and holiday pay and I will be returning to a regular 8-5 Mon-Fri Job. And the part I am most excited about...I'll get a 50% Raise over what I make now!!!



    What a fantastic way to end 2009 and start 2010!!! Huge Thanks to my References, some of whom are on this forum!

    Re: I Got The Job!!!

    Congratulations! How exciting!

    After all of the bad news circulating about the python legislation, and the tragedy in Arlington, it's nice to hear a success story.

    So, this means more money for more BPs, eh?
