And as I was working, job hunting and/or temping, I had to find other sources of happiness. Always look for the RIGHT job, not just any job.

My boss, the CEO, got fired in September last year and the company still hasn't started the process to replace him. Dear BL, I am so happy you found my blog!

When I started out, no one really had a website/blog/Twitter/Facebook/MySpace so I just opened up the YellowPages and called every single one. Other things to keep in mind.

I have noticed three criteria of a good company during my years as a staff member and freelancer/contractor before getting hire, while working there, and upon finishing a contract job. 1) Good companies ask you to meet with as many people as possible during the interview process. It's the little things that matter! Please share!
