One Amazing Week

This past week has definitely ended on a good note. It actually started out good and ended even better. Since we moved out here in August, I have been sending out resumes every month if not almost every week looking for a new job. So sending out resumes last Saturday night wasn't anything out of the norm. But last Monday morning I get an email asking to setup an interview for Thursday morning. I was very shocked at this email since I had just applied for this position Saturday night and here it was 9:30 Monday morning. Anyways, I was able to setup an interview time around my work schedule with no problems, so that was a good thing. I interviewed with the Vice President of the company and at the start of the interview, the position was actually only for part time with the hopes of becoming full time in 3-4 months. As you can imagine, my heart sank and I thought to myself I just can't get a break. But as the interview continued and we talked about my current situation of being the only one working in the family while Ross attends law school, things started to change. By the time the interview had ended, the position had changed to being full time from the start and I was told that he wanted to make me an offer but had to wait for my background check to come back, which would take 2-3 days. On Friday, the very next day, I got a call from the Vice President and was offered the full time position and asked if I could start in one week! So starting Monday, April 26, I will the Regulatory Affairs Associate assisting the Vice President of California Medical Laboratories. They are a company that manufacture cardiovascular products used by heart surgeons. These products are not only sold in the US but world wide. All of this excitement took place in one week...talk about amazing!


Besides the news of my new job, things are still hectic around the Wood household. Ross has one more week of classes and then it's "dead week" (studying time with no classes) and then it's finals time. I have also been slowly starting to study for my GMAT test that I have to schedule to take in June for my masters degree application. Plus I have to complete all the necessary documents that are needed for the actual application to the school. So one more week of classes for Ross and one more week of working at my current job. I feel this coming week is going to be a long one.
