The Bank of England laid off all loan officers at the San Diego branch. I was one of them.

Out of nowhere with no warning, corporate flew in to hand us our last check and say thank you. I am looking for a family oriented positive environment. Does anyone know of a salary plus commission sales job? I would go back to selling mortgages possibly...

What I loved working at #HSBCBank

What I loved about working at HSBC Bank was the awesome support and feeling like I was part of a family. The training was top of the line, 2nd to no one else in the industry! The flexibility of working shifts that were convenient to my home and family life were another bonus. I loved my job at HSBC Bank and wish they had decided to keep our call center open.

What I loved working at #AmericanExpress

Loved helping the customer when they were having difficulty in getting the card accepted at a store. I would call and negotiate a fair rate benefitting customer and merchant.

Offer Extended to me from Bank of America (feeling happy and discouraged)

Hello Y'all,

I hope everyone is doing well. I wanted to share:

Yesterday, I interviewed for a position with Bank of America, for a Collections & Recovery Specialist (Business Division.) In the interview the person interviewing me, and I agreed, I was probably over-qualified. However, we discussed the fact that the position is entry-level, it was a way to get my foot in the door. She really liked my experience and told me that after the 6-month contract, you typically get hired and who is to say where I can go. My background is in the legal field and being a corporate/sales software trainer. She mentioned how impressive this was. She is a manager now and told me she started in the same seat I was sitting in and that I would bring a lot to the table for advancement.

I was extended an offer this morning.

Here are the Pro’s:

  1.   Pay’s better than unemployment
    
  2.   Job will help fill-in my gap of not working, due to caring for my mom.
    
  3.   Offer’s Overtime/bonuses and the hours are from 11:00 am – 8:00 pm.
    
  4.   This location is one of the Corporate Operations offices and is located 6 MILES away from home!! Living in California, I can tell you this is the closest I have been to home! Usually commutes take about 3 hours a day via car/trains, etc.
    
  5.    Left my company in January to care for my mom, as she became terminal and have been off work since. I have had time to grieve her loss and I can’t help but think, it will do me some good to get back to a work environment and fill my days up once again.
    

Here are the Con’s:

  1.   Pay’s ½ of what I made in my last job. About $30,000 less. (Very discouraging, yet I think I can be frugal and make it until something changes.)
    
  2.  I have about 12 weeks of unemployment left.
    

The company I interviewed with on 10/31 (healthcare trainer), had to delay the final interviews for this position. I really hope and pray this one will come to me. I was notified I was still being considered and will probably not have the final decision until a few weeks from now.

I will continue to keep looking and trust if nothing else comes through, I will start this new job on 1/7/19 and make the best of it and just believe my journey will improve for the better. I keep landing as the runner-up and I now got to be the number 1 choice.

I'm happy and discouraged about the pay, what a feeling! I have been looking and interviewing and have turned downed low paying jobs. Something told me to accept the offer and trust the process.

Any input is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Cindy

Jobs and credit

I had an interview this past Friday at a bank, which I really want this job more than anything. I am thankful that I am employed, but this is a much better opportunity. But I found out that I may miss out on this job due to the fact that I was not able to make a payment on 2 of my credit cards due to being off work sick. This makes me sad. I feel that I am one of the hardest working people I know. And I would work extra hard to make this company not regret hiring me if they pick me. I will continue to pray for this breakthrough. But I advise anyone to make sure while you are going through the job seeking process to make sure that you try to keep your credit up to par. This could be a deciding factor in your future employment. But I will remain hopeful and positive through this process.
