I got a job!

Filed under: Personal

Today, January 31, 2006 was a momentous day in my life. The reason, I got a job! I am now an Account Representative / Recruiting Assistant for Mercer Staffing (Quantum Resources) in Richmond, VA. It is a great company and I look forward to becoming an integral part of the organization.

As I think back on my almost year-long job search and interview process, I realize that I have learned and grown so much. Here are just a few of them:

Persistence - how to not be afraid to pursue a job or get in touch with the people I need to speak to.
Communication - how to express my thoughts in a clear and organized fashion.
Self-knowledge - I know my own strengths and weaknesses so much better. I know more about who God made me to be and what I enjoy doing.
Patience - How to wait well for the right job and to realize that God is never late.
Resilience - How to bounce back from unpredicted changes or disappointments.
Faith - How to trust that God has a plan for my life, even when I couldn\’t see Him working, or it seemed like all was going wrong.

Praise God for His provision. I am so grateful!
