Many of you know this...
On 12/16, my company split into two individual companies. On 12/17, my director called me into his office and told me that my new, smaller company didn't need an ecommerce site, the site was being closed, and my position was being eliminated at the end of the year.
Sucks. But I got a few months severance, so not horrible.
Been searching since.... I have had a ton of interviews, but I kept being the finalist but not the guy who gets the job. I'm fairly certain that that's one of the joys of being over 50 in a fast paced hi tech field....
But next week, I have 3 on site visits with 3 different companies (Raleigh, Greensboro, and Mooresville (hmmm... I might have worked at that one before)), and a 4th (Charlotte) is making the final decision next week for another position I interviewed for last week. I've have multiple phone calls with each of these companies in the last few weeks. All of these are jobs for which I am fully qualified, and which will be sufficient for income and benefits.
I hope and expect to get at least one offer from this streak of interviews....But I will accept any prayers for this y'all might be willing to send my way. I'm doing everything I can to help myself, but think I might need a little more divine push to seal the deal.
I was unhappy and unchallenged at the job I was laid off from, I'm hoping this is God's way of closing one door so that a better one will be opened. I just wish it would open a little faster.
Thanks for any prayers you can send.
