Careers & Employment - January 2007

I'v been interviewed by the the Corporate Planning unit of the university for the job of contract officer. Based on the Q&A during the interview, they said my level is for a lecturer post. Actually, I have a master degree but nowadays, it is not easy to find a job. Therefore, I tried to search a job one step below of my qualification. Based on the question, don't you feel you are overqualified?, how should I respond?

After a mtg 3 weeks ago; my bosses boss, E, told my boss I did a great job. I emailed E something she'd asked me for in the mtg and on 1/9 she wrote back, asking if I was interested in talking with her about my 'future opportunities' within the company. I wrote back yes, and spoke briefly with her the next day when she called for my boss. Then I emailed her Fri 1/12 saying I hadn't been scheduled the day she had mentioned, is there a better time? Never heard back. Saw her Wed 1/24; she said she never got my emails, but she's in her office on Mon so I should email her & we'd set something up. I emailed her Thu and left her a VM Fri and still haven't heard back. Should I go to her office tomorrow after work? Should I call her again, or wait and see if she gets in touch with me? There's a lot of change going on at work(new staff is coming in) and I'm anxious to see what E wants me to do, because if it's not an improvement, I want to start looking for a new job. What should I do?

I am currently in High School, ninth grade, and I really want to be a pediatrician when I grow up. I've had great experiences with pediatricians, one has helped me and been there for me when I had a grave problem.

Now, how does it work to become a pediatrician? What classes should I take in high school? What happens after I graduate from high school? What medical school is the best and would reflect good on me?

I am a smart kid, I just procrastinate too much. I am currently overcoming that.

Anyways, when you study to become a pediatrician do you just become one automatically and have the choice of starting your own office?

Any help would be great.

I worked at the Minnesota Renaissance Festival for 3 years. This past December, I moved to Oregon so that my husband and I could try something new. In October, before fest was over, my supervisor told me that if I came back next year, I would have the assistant supervisor position. Well, everyone is freaking out that I moved and are trying to replace me, so should I say I'll go, or should I stay and let them figure it out? I already said I would go and I love fest, it would look great on my resume, we are financially secure enough that I could make the month a half trip only working weekends and a couple days a week. Please help! Everyone tells me to follow my heart, to do what I love, except for two people, my old supervisor and my mom. They both say that I should finish my degree. Degree would be better in the long run, but the supervisor position will look great on the resume....Help me please!

say a company is considering someone that hasn't really done anything to deserve being fired - other than their personality doesn't click with the higher ups - could they legally fire that person or would they have to lay them off - isn't it more costly for the company to lay someone off because of the severance package? just wonder if there are legal standards in place so that companies aren't allowed to just fire someone at will without just reason.
