hold out for the job of my dreams

i did it :) i held out,and it looks like now, in 2008, the position has come through. just waiting for it to be official.

i’ve decided not to change jobs this year unless it’s for that one particular position, so i’ll mark this as done for now…

since the whole week’s off :) it will be easy to spend a few minutes each day making notecards with interview questions; maybe will think of things to put in my portfolio also

sent the resume and cover letter in the mail today. thought it was the best resume and cover letter could have possibly done. now it’s up to fates and the universe whether i get a position there – if yes, then will trust that it’s the right job at the right time; if no, then will trust that it worked out for the best.

Just revised my resume & cover letter from last year. Now, i’m going to print them out and get them ready to mail on monday – ONLY to the school where i really want to work. if i don’t hear from them this year, then i’ll try again next year.

either, a) i will get a job there, and be elated, or b) no positions will be available this year, and i’ll get a better classroom (someone’s retiring), take four courses, and take the qualifying exam next year.

it’s win-win. the resume is signed and sealed. going to deliver it on monday :)

instead of sending out resumes, i’ve decided to hold out for the job i really want. there’s only one school that i’d really love to work in, so i’m going to write a cover letter and send a resume to that principal. if no positions are available there, then my current job really isn’t that bad. aside from the 50-min-each-way-commute, it gives me lots of time to work on my degree

i’m thankful for the job i have; still, would like to make more money with a shorter commute. have got resume and cover letter ready, will send out over the weekend.
