ACC: Got a new job.
ACC: Heck of a story behind my newfound employment.
Two months back, I put in an application at a call center (due to past experience and that they're one of the better-paying jobs in my area), then got called to set up an interview the next day. Interview came, I did well, and I was essentially told that all they didn't know was when the next training class would start, then they told me to wait for their call and call them in two weeks. Two weeks came without a call, which led to a month of getting jerked around, only to find out that, apparently, they were only hiring bilingual, and that they would let me know if any English-only openings came up.
Fast forward to a week ago, I put in an application with a staffing agency, then get called immediately on Monday for an interview the next week, only to get called on Thursday to let me know they had a client starting a training class for a job they thought would be perfect for me, so they needed to bump up the interview to an hour from when the call was. I got to the interview, and found out it was for the company I was jerked around by for a month. So, once that was over, not even an hour after the interview, I get a call from the staffing agency, letting me know I got the spot in the training class.
It seems that sometimes, the main road isn't the best option.
