Job Hunting

I have been out of job for almost a year now but this is the case not because I was sacked in my previous job rather, it was a voluntary act to leave my job to be with MCJ and start a family. A move that I have nothing to regret. But, let's not talk about that!

I had worked in the same company for more or less, 7 years. Sounds boring, huh! But I am happy to say that I was not stucked in the same job function for that duration. I had been assigned to 3 departments and performed 6 different functions. And I landed to this company pretty easy. I didn't went through the screening process. And I miss the excitement of being a part of the mob eagerly searching for jobs.

To have a dip, in my last two years with the company, I tried to find a job, errr, another job... for the reasons: searching for a greener pasture and looking for something new; experience, work environment and people to know. I had been to one interview and I tell you.. I was excited at the same time nervous but I may say, I made it. We had met halfway in my asking price but too bad, I was about to get married the same month that they wanted me to join their company. I went for one month leave so I had to pass up the employment opportunity.

It might be a long time again until I join the field of the job hunters. But I am looking forward to the experience especially in this place where I am in.

wow una ako!

ako rin I quit my job to take care of my children. lalo na in your situation na u are starting a family. sabi nga nila ang pinakamahirap na maging trabaho e ang pagiging isang ina but it was all worth it. :-)

sabi ko non, i want to have a baby na so i can start the process of quitting my job. dapat ata baligtad. i should quit my job muna (like you did) so i can start the process of having a baby. hirap kasi, parati kameng di magkasama ni papa harvs ko because of work, di tuloy makabuo, hehe :)

Sabi ko sa sarili ko noon I won't quit kahit may anak na ako, inabot ng 4 yrs na wala kaming anak. Kaya sabi ko magka-anak lang kami iiwan ko work ko.
