Job Hunting

Both Bob and I are hunting for jobs. We are definitely making some progress with updating our resumes, searching the various job boards etc.

Bob went to an informational meeting at Kent State University to find out more about their nursing program. He wouldn't be able to start until August and it would be 15 months of full time instruction. He is interested in the program, but it would be a large investment both financial and in time. They said to expect to study about 15-20 hrs. a week beyond the 35-40 hours in clinicals. So, Bob is going to discuss the advance course work, etc. with a neighbor of ours to see what it is REALLY like. So, it may be an option.

Bob also has a phone interview with Abbott Laboratories on Monday. The position would be very similar to what he was doing at Pfizer. This position would NOT be in Ohio, but would require us to move to North Chicago area.

I have sent out about 12 resumes in total and have only heard a no in one case. I just sent out 4 yesterday. So, I am hoping that something will come through soon. If not, I am thinking about calling a temp agency just to see if I can make some extra cash.

Will update when we hear or decide on anything in particular.
