Anyone starting a new job/being promoted?
I am I am!!! I just got my MSW and I am being promoted within my agency. My first day is Monday June 14th. I am excited because I am going to make twice as much money and it is a mostly *fieldwork* position so I can plan my days how I want. I was offered some therapist positions in our outpatient mental health clinic and also at a hospital, but I don't want to be inside all day waiting for the client to come to me, and also, in those kinds of positions, you can't really do any referral/case management stuff for clients in severe need because as a therapist "you're primarily there to listen". I am also using this position as a "stepping stone". I hopefully one day will become a Director in this or a similar program Wish me luck

I am. I got a job within 2 days of turning in my last assignment. The guys I work for are great, but I'm just not happy with the work I'm doing. I got a job with a multinational financial institution as a website usability expert in their e-commerce division. It's EXACTLY what I went to graduate school to do, it's a 20% increase in salary, and a benefits package so robust that I almost feel like crying.
I start the new gig on June 28.

I just started at Wal-Mart today! It's just a summer job...but I was getting desperate in my job hunt and I was soooo ecstatic when they called me for an interview, because I'm trying to save money for grad school.

After six months as a back waiter, I am finally being promoted to server. This will mean more money and another step to my final goal of being a wine steward.

i start today as a FULL time assistant at a realtor's office...
it's been a while since i last had a FULL time job, so lets keep our fingers crossed and hope i can make it through a FULL day!
(The only thing keeping me going is the fact that it'll soon all be over once summer is done... i don't know how i'll ever make it in the real world!)

Well I've been here most of the day. My immediate supervisor is out for today and tommorrow sick so I don't really have much to do. I've been catching up with some old colleagues who also now work in the program, read up on some client files, but until I actually meet with my other 2 members and get assigned a caseload this is as exciting as it gets for two days. I finally figured out who to log on to someone's computer (most need a password which I don't have yet) and can catch up on my GC.

I passed up a campaign position today- they wanted me full time as a Volunteer Coordinator for the Franker congressional race but I want to get through my schooling and I don't want to pass off on Phi Psi while we're colonizing.
3rd campaign position since spring break that I've passed up.

I accepted a sales assistant position at a media marketing firm in Detroit yesterday My firm does television, they made it sound like I was over qualified for the position, but said they want me. They also pushed the fact that I can move into an account exec position in about a year
I start July 12th

Re: Anyone starting a new job/being promoted?
Congrats on your new job. I've been at my company for over a year and right now I'm being eyeballed by the higher ups for an Assistant Vice-President job. Wish me luck. This is currently in the pipe and about 6 months down the road. Wish me luck!!! !
