What you did you go through to get it. How was the applying process? How many interviews and how did it go? How long did it take for them to hire you?


I literally went through hell to get this job. I was out of college for three years and for two of those years could only find a job at Staples retail. I found something close to what I wanted in March of last year. But it was only temporary and only worked for about a month there.

Last September, I applied for this job that had qualifications for the field I went to school for. I hadn't heard back from them for a week. So, I sent out a follow-up email (which is something that someone had recently strongly encourage me to do). That same day, they asked me to do a phone interview and they were impressed with my follow-up email. I did the phone interview, and at the end of it, I was told they already wanted me to come in for an in-person interview before the phone interview started. This was the first time where I felt there might be a chance.

Went in, did the interview, asked when I would hear back from them. They told me sometime the next week. The next day, they called me and offered me the job. I broke down in tears.
