After almost a year of being unemployed, I have received an offer for a full time job with benefits and the pay I need. After over 500 resumes sent out, 11 temp agencies that lead to absolutely nothing, and less than 20 interviews. The strange coincidence is the job is with a company I had previously interviewed with, and didn't get the job. The person who interviewed me referred me for the position and even gave me a recommendation to the interviewer. I still have to do the onboarding process - which won't be a big deal, but I received my offer letter less than 30 minutes after speaking with the HR representative I have been communicating with. Several times I wanted to give up, and I was considering putting my house on the market before I could no longer make my mortgage payments. My savings had almost run out, but I had a good feeling about this job and lo and behold - it came through. Don't give up! it's out there waiting for you!
