Another carrot & stick...

I got in touch with a Mike today from a placement agency. A Mike that I emailed a month ago, and then emailed again a few days later. And again two weeks later. Not to mention the voice mails in between, expressing excitement about a residential construction marketing coordinator job posting I had seen... He was one of the many companies I didn't hear back from.

Then last night Matt forwarded the same damn job posting to me. I was thinking how lazy this guy was for not getting this position staffed already!! So I woke up this morning and called up our good friend Mike, and the guy actually answered! ...We had a good chuckle about the email he had archived from a Laura Brown in July. He commented on how nicely my experience lined up with the job I was inquiring about, but that the company would be taking a few more weeks to hire... Mid Septemberish, I think. The salary looks good and it's close to home... Might be worth the wait.

...I'm funny because I act as if I have companies lined up at my door.
