damnit… i would be perfect this and i’m trying to get the interview but it’s hard trying to stand out among the masses…. how do get heard? i am actually over qualified for this position but i want it so bad that its all i think about (in the job world) I’m trying to work the heavy mojo but …. sheesh…… short of finding the recruiter and poking them with a stick, for once- I’m at a loss as to how to get noticed when all i have to rely on is a faceless email with my resume in it.
dear jeebus… this would be awesome if you could hook a’ gal up. thanks, sheebus
ps: it’s actually a pretty fall day here in the dirtay south.. also, i’d like to take a moment and say that while i think it’s all shades of fucked up that citysearch would terminate (needlessly) the position of a new mommy and that aetna shojld be struck by lightening over the lack of professionalism…. i would like to take a moment to say that at the end of the day, i’ve been lucky enough to spend this time at home with my little son… i’ve watched him change alot in the last 8 weeks, and i’ve watched the husband and i grow into a real-live family.. and overcome obstacles that at that moment in time, seemed hopeless or out of our range of life experience. so in all.. i’m grateful for that.
pps: coooooommmeeee on.. gimmiethatjob!
Sorry you’re stressed - wish there was something I could do to help.

I know it sucks having to worry about finding a new job when you have so many other stresses, but you’re probably better off not giving any more of yourself to folks who will cut you off at the knees at the first opportunity. And you did get to spend this critical time at home that wouldn’t have happened otherwise.
The way to approach any job search is to just do your best possible job of preparation and presentation, and then not sweat the results. You have no control over the decision-making process at a prospective employer - nepotism, indifference, stupidity - there are all sorts of bogus reasons you might not get a particular job. All you need to do is be so professional that they won’t have any VALID reasons. You have a dynamic, creative personality and you’re a hard worker - sooner or later, you WILL find someone who’s smart enough to hire you.
