I am frustrated. I am pretty qualified in my field and thought that finding a job would be no problem. There are a few school districts hiring part time positions in my field and I have interviewed for them. One of the school districts just emailed me and said that my recommendations were excellent but now they need to interview a few more people. It looks like many other people want part time, too. I think most of the other applicants are seasoned retired folks and I can't compete with those people as they have many years of experience over me and can kick my butt at job interviews.

So, my previous thread regarding which job should I take may not even be an issue anymore because I may not even get a job! We really do need some money coming in. Also, in my field, the longer you don't work the harder it is to get a job later. I know things will work out the way they are supposed to and if I don't get a job it could be the best thing. If that happens, I will get a paper route and/or watch a few kids full time.

Boise, ID has a lot of graduates coming out of BSU. The job market here is just so tight that I think they are also willing to take two to three day a week jobs. Another thing that maybe influencing employers decision to hire me is that I am very pregnant. I told them that I can start work when school starts but I am starting to wonder if just being pregnant scares them. I was hired at my last job while pregnant and didn't start work until three months after the school year started. The job market was not as tight there.

I should know about both jobs within a few days. In the meantime, I will continue to bite my nails and go through little anxiety attacks just waiting.
