Just had a great phone interview with one of the gaming studios. At least I think it went well. It's my third phone interview. I started talking to them about a month and a half ago. I don't think I'll need to meet with anyone in person as the role is a work from home for a central group and I've met one of the people in the group as she used to work for my former company so I think I'm good there. If I could just get a decent offer from this company then I'd be set and I can relax for a bit. It'd be for a contract but it'd be for at least 6 months so that's cool.
I emailed a couple other folks today as follow ups from conversations we had last week but so far nothing. Job searching in this economic climate has not been fun....at all. But I'll tell you what is fun....the search. I'm good at it. I find a new job every now and then and I know I could work for them and produce even though they don't call me in for an interview, I know I could do it. It's fun for me to discover those roles and get a little bit excited and hopeful.
The other thing I've done today and yesterday is forward my current co-workers and friends' resumes to my friend for consideration at her company. I almost feel like I'm recruiting for her firm even though I don't have anything official in place. It's keeping me busy and always gives me a good feeling. I like to help...and feel needed.
I'm looking forward to not thinking about "the search" this weekend. If I think about it too much I get really disappointed. Trying not to go there.
TGIF!
