I have applied for a job I really want, I did the aptitude test, the medicals, and interviews, now I get a letter saying "they are pleased to inform me that I am on a short list and as soon as a vacancy occurs they will be in touch" should I hold my breath?

I live in a large metropolitan city and I hate it! I've decided to move and I've interviewed and been offered a position with another company in a much smaller state/city.

The pay is comparable; the benefits as well. I was working with a recruiter and he pressured me into giving a decision regarding if I was going to accept the position - I did.

I have an interview scheduled with another company next week - a somewhat larger city - with comparable pay and benefits.

My biggest concern is the first place - where I've accepted - has been wonderful. They're working to find me a place to live and they've been very hospitable.

I don't have the best credit and I'm really worried about finding a place to live in this other city in a reasonable amount of time -without having to pay through the nose.

There's also no guarantee I'll get the other job - but I have a REALLY good chance.

Any suggestions? I'm really confused about what I should do - which job I should take?

I am not sure why the HR department wants to talk to me, but something does not sound right. There was an issue between me and my manager while I was there. Do I have to respond? I have no need to talk to them. Can they force me to talk to them?

i havent received any kind of response yet.
im about 3 and half months new at this job and i didnt want to get into any kind of trouble by keeping the money so i emailed "the boss" and told him they made a mistake. i get direct deposit so money is automatically deposited into my bank account every 2 weeks. so it isnt a check they can send back.. its already there in my account.
do you think i shouldnt have emailed him and just kept the money?
(it was about $100 more than my usual pay)

i was just curious as to what anyone would do in my situation..
and im a little nervous since i havent had any kind of response yet.
(im hoping they let me keep the money but ill understand if i cant)

ever been in a situation like this?

What are some well-paying jobs? I'm currently a freshmen in undergrad school, but I'm completely willing to go to prof. school. I just have no idea what I want to do with my life. I want a career that is in demand, or is at least attainable if I get high grades. I also want something that has a high salary if I work hard. What are my options? If you're going to say law, what types of law are best to study?

The managers are going to make an announcement on Monday, that they going to have to let us go.

Because the company is not making any money

I have looked at the contract and there is no mention of time they are allowed to give when they are terminating a contract

One manager told me that I may have 2 weeks as I have been with the company for a year

Could someone advise me?

I walked after my tolerance level tiped the scale. I didnt give 2 weeks notice and only gave the notice the next day and still didnt come back.
Is this bad?
Also, how would i present my cv because employers need to know previous employement obviously.

I have been actively looking for a job since I was let go from my previous job last year due to office restructuring. I cannot find anything I started applying for employment the day after I was let go. I really want to work again. I have faxed my resume,emailed and mailed my resume to companies hoping they might need help. I have answered job ads in the paper and also online on all the major employment web sites where my resume is posted. I have worked in a office for over twenty years my last position was almost seven years. I am also over 50 and i am wondering if my age comes into play. It is really getting frustrating I am on the computer for hours every night looking for a job. I am also signed up with a number of employment agencies I call them every couple of weeks and they keep telling me they have nothing for me. I have applied for many jobs and had only a couple of interviews this past year. I even applied for a couple of temp jobs and I was not called. What should I do.

Hi Guys!
It is generally believed that "what matters knowledge and experience not certifications and degrees"
I am persuing CFA course from ICFAI and i am confused that togather with should persue another course in order to get one more degree?? But at the same time one question arise in mind that of knowledge and experience that rather wasting time in acquiring another degree, i should focus in my core area of knowledge(CFA) and try to be updated with latest knowledge and information BECOUSE "what matters knowledge and not degree" Is it true perception? To what extend, my friends, will you agree???

Okay so i just recently started working and so far okay i guess after a month that i started working they hired some lady after me and up until this point we are both part time the only diffrence is that this lady is like 20 year older than me and of course she has more experice in the field that we are in but the dealis that she is working 10 hrs more than me.My manger loves her. They talk all the the time after work and i can honestly see her getting promoted before me for he fact that the manger likes her. The less time that that the manger stays on the computer the more possibility i'd be full time and honestly i think ive been doing good and now she wants to put me in the other ladies station and switch her to mine. And give her all th hrs i shoulf be working. If something likethat happens I think i should put in a 2 w notice???? Any Advice

My boyfriend's boss keeps telling him that the business they work at is NOT loosing money, despite very poor net sales. They almost closed down a few years back, when sales were a lot better than what they are now. Is the boss just lying to my boyfriend so that he wont go looking for another job?
Anyone know if this is a common trick bosses do?

If you go into a place of buisness, fill out an application, the manager looks at it, and then hires you on the spot, what does that mean? Does this mean they are desperate because something is happening in the store to make people quit or management just assumes I won't stay around long?

Im 100 percent burnt out doing this job. Ive been doing this for over 7 years and still a ptf. Now that I have a son who is close to a year old, I want to spend more time with him. Working 6 days a week sucks, delivering one town then driving 30 min to another and doing it again the same day I feel I am in a constant state of rush . I can go on and on about how this job sucks. Has anybody else felt my pain ?

I teach college English. I was offered a part-time position doing acadmic advising at night. Honestly, I got the job because my sister works in the same place.

I'm a month and a half in, and I've yet to be trained. I feel completely overwhelmed, and I'm hating the night hours. I feel like this night job is an inconvenience to my teaching.

I feel like a jerk because it is a good job, but I think I realize that this is not something I want to do. But I'm afraid of making my sister look bad or seeming ungrateful.

I know I shouldn't have gotten into the job because of the whole family/work relationship, but I didn't listen to that little voice. Now, I'm kicking myself.

I've verbally committed through May of next year. Should I stay that long and just hate it? Or should I leave now?

I've told my sister that I'm hating it. (She's also supposed to be my trainer and immediate supervisor. She's not happy with how I feel about it, but she understands.) What should I do?
