THe NAC Lots-O-BFG KO2 Thread

Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

I've been productive since I don't have a choice.

Lame stuff I just need to get out of the way.

I don't feel bad about being lazy today.

I have plenty to do but I can't do any of it without email. So I know tomorrow is gonna make up for it by having twice as much shit to do.

I'm enjoying this while it lasts. :laugh:
 
How/where did you guys get your jobs? Should be doing something different than scouring job websites and sending my resume and a cover letter to any position I like and/or qualify for? I have never gotten a reply from sending out job apps.. Ever. Even the gig I have now I got because I knew somebody.
 
Re: THe NAC Lots-O-Post Thread

Submitted my resume/cover letter online.

Got an interview with a bunch of other people.

Got lucky that they were understaffed at the time.

Proved my work ethic and they've kept me around through a few layoffs.

We'll see what happens if shit really hits the fan though.

sending resumes and whatnot online never even get me a reply back

when i applied in person was when i got phone calls back and first and some second interviews.

although what i do differs quite a bit from what you do

My school's website...one of our electives had a career seminar about how to build a resume, then they posted it online with visibilty to a few search engines. I think. It was a good 9 months after I graduated that he found it.

If you know what industry you want to be in look for their trade organizations, usually by region or state and there will be job postings not on other sites
Or ball up, walk into a place you want to work and ask to see the hr person and hand them your resume and interview them
 
Got my Reid from ecgs.. They shipped me an extra pair of ball joints by accident.. But I didn't get the special Reid spindle stud, called Reid in cali and they're sending one out.

Ken, clean out your inbox

Done

Adam, my first greasemonkey job I walked in and applied. Second, I came back and said "want me back?". Internships I heard about via professors who recommended me. First job I went to a job fair and listed my internship mentor at the same company as a reference and his answer was "Ken? We HAVE to get that guy in here." Still took me multiple calls and months of no answer to get in due to bureaucracy. Second job, I told them no once because they wanted me to move to NYC... then convinced myself things would actually go according to plan when they asked again a few months later. Should have trusted my gut on that one.

Next one? Dunno. I'll let you know if/when I get it :laugh2:

In other news I am building a chassis table with 2x4s, deck screws, and luck tomorrow :thumbup:
