Diary of a Job Hunt

Applications in process:

Washington State Patrol Status: passed FS1 test. No word beyond that.
Texas Status: Offered interview. Was planning on going until discovered cost to get there would be 700+ dollars. They have no travel reimbursement and refused to telephone interview. Wasn't an area Bill wants to really work so we felt okay about turning down.
Ohio Status: Never heard
Forensic Immunochemist (Where? I don't remember) Status: Never heard
US Lab (Georgia) Status: Telephone interview on July 3rd. Waiting to hear back.
ATF Chemist (California) Status: apparently not qualified
Special Agent NCIS Status: Just applied yesterday (July 9th)

Applications to complete:

Oregon: Still have to fill out skill questionaire (hello? wasn't that the point of that stinking application form??!!)
FS Trainee - Drug Chemistry (Illinois), not started yet, due July 18th

Maybe this doesn't look like a lot to you, but DANG some of these are quite a bit of work!

  2. Good Luck, We know how much effort goes into all those applications. Hope you hear something soon. Are you guys planning to leave the Spokane area?

  3. Good luck! Job hunting for summers was time consuming enough, can't imagine for a life type of job. And by the way, how do you pronounce those names in your poll? I want to vote but can't figure out how to pronounce some of them.
