Send me good job hunting juju!

Hi Ladies,

I am due in late August and have been job hunting the past several months. I am dying to find a job before I am showing. I am dying to find a job before I have this kid and then spend another several months out of the work force.

I am feeling so discouraged. 

Please, please send me good job hunting juju! Thanks!!

  • Good luck!! If you aren't already doing this, you should look into temp jobs during your job hunt. Even though they are usually for temporary periods of time, a lot of companies are looking to fill temp-perm positions.

  • Good luck! I am going to have to find a job too since I'm wrapping up law school in May and taking the bar in July. 
  • Good luck. I just got a job today so people are hiring.

  • Thanks, Ladies. Koz, congrats on your new gig. That is awesome.

    Yes, I have tried finding part-time, freelance etc type jobs. The problem is I don't want to spend too much time spinning my wheels at that (which has happened to me some) while looking for the full-time deal.  I don't know that I'm the ideal temp candidate, it doesn't happen much in my field and at my level, at least at what I hope will continue to be my level. But I will look into that also. Thanks for the good thoughts, everyone.
