Sidney decided that after two years, it was time to find a new job. She started filling out applications through indeed. She got one interview with a doggy day care place, but after the interview she had a strong feeling it was not for her. Sometimes you just have to trust your gut. She kept after it, but was getting a bit frustrated that she was not getting call backs. I told her that her generation just likes to fill the application out online and expect magic to happen. However, my generation is doing the hiring and we like to see your face and talk with you.
She took that information to heart, and filled out an application on line one day, messaged them the next day, printed an application the third day and dropped it by, got a call back the third day (30 minutes after dropping off her application), she had an interview the fourth day and was hired the fifth day. Nice work! The hiring manager told her, "You must really want this job.". She was embarrassed, but it was likely what helped get her the interview. She is now a camp counselor at a local doggy day camp. She is having the time of her life and learning some great skills.
