How to get a Job in 30 days...

Yes that is right, I got a job. After being laid off for exactly 30 days (in this economy)! And it is a better job with an amazing company (T-Mobile).

The heading will be the title of my first book, but I will give you a hint...

Take one day off after something "devistating" like a layoff. And then GET OVER IT! Then work your buns off, be persistent, tell everyone you know you are looking for a job, put your resume up on every job board in the WORLD (get a good resume first - if you need help just ask) and then make sure you answer your phone every time it rings... You never know who may be calling to offer you a job!

I also want to take a moment to thank some people. First my beautiful wife, Sara. If you don't have someone truly amazing in your corner, go get one, but sorry Sara is mine, and she rocks... So you will have to get your own. To my baby boy Cohen your smiles (along with the cost of diapers) kept me going everyday. To Mathew for pushing me to always get new content up on the blog THANKS! Thanks also to Mimi Marty for helping watch the baby or make a meal or just give general encouragement. Mom, THANKS! Having someone to always say "I knew you would... get the intervew... second interview... do well... get the job... insert general support here. To the rest of my friends and family thank you all so much! To the readers I hope you got something out of this experience.

Ask. Believe. Recieve.

P.S. the pic is me after nailing my final interview!
