I have been job searching. You go to craigslist first, right? All kinds of scary things on there. Like "get paid $100 an hour - women only" or "movie extras for $25 a day" etc. I have been nervous about sending any kind of full resume to places on craigslist. Just too little info in the postings for me to send so much about myself. So then you go to monster.com. They are just overwhelming. Way too many options. I have looked for just plain and simple admin jobs - but with higher pay. Most go through temp agencies so you know it is pointless to apply to those. Then monster tries to send recommended jobs - like openings for welders, assembly line workers and truck drivers. Not sure how that goes with admin. Looked at LA Times jobs, all the local colleges for adjunct positions, Claremont openings. Just applied all around. I did apply to Univ of Phoenix to teach online.
I actually interviewed there today - by phone. It feels like it was a strong interview, but you never know. I won't actually get paid for a while if I do make it, but it will be a great system to be a part of. Lots of good teaching experience. And on my walk this morning - I remembered about the summer reading institute I applied for way back when. Called and they are still interviewing for my area! Very exciting. Interview tomorrow. Then we got a CGU email about CSU Northridge having adjunct openings in religion. Lots of the classes would be good matches for me. Rosemary Ruether agreed to write a recommendation letter for me! So, it was a good day job searching. Finally.
Isn't it interesting that the open doors are actually things I want to do? Not just a "job". I know and trust that God is good, but sometimes I forget how good.
