I received this email from a former career coaching client, and I am thrilled for her! Here’s her message:
Wanted to let you know of my exciting new job.
Through a contact I made, I was asked to interview for 2 different positions with the South Carolina Dept. of Employment. Both weren’t ideal, but would have been a good foot in the door. I found out I didn’t get either of those positions.
Last week one of the women I interviewed with called me and said they have to fill a Case Mgr / Career Specialist position ASAP because the current Case Manager moved to a different department. The position is temporary and they will hire for the position at the end of May. I guess I made a good enough impression for her to think of me. I accepted the position the next morning. I don’t think I would have gotten this job in any other way. Even though I have all the transferable skills, they would have wanted social services experience.Â
So currently I work part time (28 hours) for Piedmont Technical College in the Dept. of Employment office helping people find jobs. It’s really exciting and I love going to work.
Just wanted to update you,
Beth
