Woohoo!!!

Well, it seems like I've got myself a new job!

I will put down how I happened to get this.

I had put a comment on my LinkedIn page saying I was looking for a job effective immediately. That I have my experience in the financial administration, but that I wouldn't mind a job outside that field, so to speak.

One of my connections responded asking what exactly I was looking for, for how many hours a week and if I would mind it being in Amsterdam.

I sent him an email explaining what I was looking for, saying that I prefer fulltime, but because of the massage course I'm doing, I'm only available 36 hours and that Amsterdam is doable. I asked him if I could assume he had a job opening?

Well, we emailed back and forth, I gave him my resumxe9 and it seemed that I'm exactly what they were looking for, so last Tuesday I had a job interview there with 2 of the partners of that company.

It's a small company with some lawyers and tax advisors. I will be filling the function at the financial administration. The meeting went very well. There was a click, as far as I could tell and all 3 or us had a good feeling about it.

This morning I got a call that I will be emailed a salary proposal tomorrow or next week. So that seems clear… Very Happy

The start date is not clear yet, but it's probably November 1st. Well, if that will be the date, I will only have been unemployed for 1 month. Who would've thought that?

Networking pays off! I would suggest it to anyone!
