Good Job News!

July 20th, 2014 at 07:02 am

Remember how stressed I was a few days ago? Well on Wednesday I had yet another job interview. I thought it had gone well, but I got the usual song and dance of them letting me know in the next two weeks or so.

When I got to the apartment I got to deal with a flooded sink and kitchen. Fun. (Plumber took care of it with 90ft of snake ... I was only two hours late for work.)

On Thursday as I was driving to my call center job I got a phone call. It was from the place I interviewed at on Wednesday! They wanted to know if I'd still be interested in the job even if I'd have to wait until August 4 for the background check to be finished.

Oh yeah!

I have no idea how much it pays, or for sure what the benefits are. I also am not positive on the days/hours. I've looked and looked for where I found the job listing, but haven't been able to locate it anywhere.

So ... how would y'all suggest I go about finding out this information without looking bad before even starting my job? Btw, it is for an admin asst job at the local bus transit company. (City government job, so I'm pretty sure I have at least health benefits.)

I'm so happy to have a full time job finally, and to have the ability to get my own apartment in the very near future!!

    Since this is a city/gov job all the info you want/need should be mostly posted online. Pay definatly is. Some benefit probably are.

    The original job offer is also probably posted online which may give you the info.

    I would suspect the days/hours might be rotating shifts since the company probably operates 24/7 but the origninal listing may also give that info.

    That IS good news!
    I would just ask. It shouldn't make you look "bad" to want to know what type of hours or what pay you'll be getting.
    At this point would the pay and hours really change your mind about taking the job?

    Great news, congratulations and I hope you like the new job. I bet you can't wait to get moved into your own apartment.

    Congrats! I think the info should be online, or you might call the newspaper and ask if they publish salaries. Our city publishes salaries once a year in the classifieds...not exact amounts, but ranges.

    Sweet! I found the salary and health benefits. Lets just say I'll be making more than I did in NM, even at the low end of the range. I'll have to call tomorrow to find out about the hours/days and about parking. I'm getting a wee bit excited. Smile
    Thanks everyone!
