Kind of a hectic day today, but a good weekend.
On the weekend, we had a Breakfast party at my Toastmasters club. My wife and my son attended. He was one of the main attractions it seemed. But Fabian was good. He scratched himself a little bit and he was loud at that time, but overall, he was great.
I am improving at a good pace. It’s not revolutionary. Just a step by step. But that’s good. I had remained confident. I delivered a strong message. I did miss on the few points I wanted to make. But I did not have any notes with me and I did not write it out so I did not remember everything. But I got to the gist of it and I think that’s good enough.
Today, I had sent out 4 or 5 resumes. One guy, I think it’s a job here at White Plains, called back right away. I did not get a chance to talk to him. Then Emily from Concepts in Staffing called. She asked me whether I can go for an interview if the client asks for it. I did say yes, in the morning. But then at 12PM, the account manager sent me an email that she wants to talk to me before the send out my resume to the client, Solbright. I called her maybe 40 minutes later but she was not available. I tried several times more with no luck. I’ll call her tomorrow morning. I wonder what she wants.
I still have to call Eric at RHT. And Orlando at not sure where. But to work with so many recruiters… do I want that? I don’t know. I want a position that is challenging. I don’t want to move just to move. I want an upgrade in the position. I have been here at Ask (or IAC Search and Media) for year and a half. It used to be better. Things are slow. At least for the past 6 months where I have been on the same search project. I like to build new projects. I like new challenges. I like to lead other people. I don’t get that here. I need to look for other opportunities. Therefore, if something opens up, I’ll take it. Even now.
