Dear Sir, Madame, Random E-mail Generator,
I would like to take this moment to thank you for all the jobs I've been offered this week. I just want to offer a few words of advice, from a potential employee.
To you "Albert Anderson". Just a couple things. First, when YOU misspell the name of your "company" in the first word of your email, it does tend to make one a little suspicious. Second, while having someone answer some questions is very valid, asking them "if you have your own bank account and what that account number is" isn't likely to get an actual response. And finally, having a company that supposedly is an active "online" company, but not findable in Google, really raises questions. You'll notice I didn't reply to your email... I think we both know why.
To "Jane Lowe, Pete Stevens, Angie Truax, Molly Horn, Al Roth, Steve Peterson, Maggie Brown and Jason Logan"... you all seem to be "Vice President of HR" for the same company. While I don't claim to be a financial analyst or anything, I'm just guessing that your company my be a little top heavy in management, and maybe trimming you down to oh... say... one person, in this economy that seems like a prudent, cost savings idea.
And to the AJCjobs.com person who replied to my "It is extremely bothersome that you use hotjobs as your job search engine because you have to wait through so much crap" with "We have a contract with hotjobs"... um... yeah... I KNOW that. I'm saying you SHOULDN'T. I'm saying that having to wade through 3 pages of "Work from home" and "get paid to take surveys" and find the actual JOBS is a PAIN and makes me NOT WANT TO USE YOU.
And to the three of you actually hiring for a REAL position... I'm a hard worker, dependable, loyal, sweet, detail oriented, professional, tech savvy, computer literate and can answer up to 80 phone lines with 60 different greetings. And I can say all the states in alphabetical order in one breath in less than 20 seconds. That ALONE should make you DYING to hire me.
I'm available at any time for a face-to-face interview to share more ways I am a perfect fit for your organization.
Sincerely,
Lizzy

Hey, maybe they'll hire you and make you a VP too! :)
I would totally hire you if I had a job to give you. I know that doesn't help at all but I truly mean it. Does your current employer have a branch in Atlanta that they could give you a reference for? How about the university sytem up there...maybe search their website and see if any of the universities have oncampus positions of some sort? How about a temp agency? When we first moved to NYC I used a temp agency and worked at lots of different offices that ended up turning into a counseling job at Bellevue hospital. I used "Kelly temps",,do they have one of those in the area? Just some thoughts....I'm sure you've thought of all of the angles but I thought I would throw a couple out there just in case!
I just hate that you're having so much trouble finding a job in the ATL. :-(
The temp agency direction is a decent idea, I must admit. When I left a job several years ago, I hooked up with a temp agency (AccountTemps) who placed me with a company that hired me on full time after about 2 months. I stayed with that company for 4 years until my first baby came. It might be worth checking out. Especially if you have a specialized skill set in Finance/Accounting. I'm still asking around my friends who live down there.
The job market sucks! I hope you fins something legit soon:-)
good luck...not that that helps. =)
Look at DaVita Dialysis. They are always hiring for all positions. A bonus, they are a health care agency that is very needed in this country. Good odds that with your experience and their nationwide availability that you all could be a good match.
Hope things start looking up soon. I am constantly amazed by the morons who are in charge of actual things like companies/corporations. Hope you and yours Have the Happiest of 4ths!
I'm a little jealous of your spam...mine is all about making a certain thing I don't have longer and thicker. ;)
In all seriousness though, I'm so sorry it's so hard finding a job. I'd hire you, I totally and completely would!!!! If you at all want to check here in my area let me know...but I'm not any closer to ATL. {HUG}
