Gerritt Posted March 11, 2007 Report Posted March 11, 2007 (edited) Well as everyone here knows I have been dealing with a busted hand and as a result of that I was unable to work without serious pain in my present occcupation. A couple weeks ago I made a post here on OFC if anyone knew of any positions available as I was having difficulty finding any decent jobs here in Hamilton that weren't General Labour positions. While I had a great deal of responses via PM wishing me good luck, and even a couple odd job inqueries. That is until I received a PM from a certain person here that deals in job placements......HeadHunter..... Turns out he had a client/friend that was looking for someone with my exact qualifications, Some that is able to read blueprints, knows the trades, and has sound computer skills. I was put into contact with this firm and a interview was lined up. I was the only candidate and the only one interviewed for this position. All this transpired over the last two weeks.... and I am happy to say I start back to work tomorrow!!! Man am I looking forward to getting back into the mix! So in this post I want to publicly thank Headhunter for all the work he put forth to make this happen..... Thank YOU! I would also like to thank everyone that sent me their best wishes and letters of encouragement.... Thank YOU! I will be spending less hours here a day... I hope the withdrawal is not to bad!!! Enjoy the day folks... it is beautiful outside!! Me? I will be at the outlaws for supper. Gerritt. Edited March 11, 2007 by Gerritt
Terry Posted March 11, 2007 Report Posted March 11, 2007 wow that's great....Headhunter's the MAN.......
TennesseeGuy Posted March 11, 2007 Report Posted March 11, 2007 Gerritt, they got a good man for the job. Best to you.
Garyv Posted March 11, 2007 Report Posted March 11, 2007 Fantastic... it takes the worry of supporting your family away. I fished with HH when he was in my area 2 years ago and found him to be a nice person ( he didn't complain when we didn't catch any smallmouth ) so I'm not surprised he was able to help you. Enjoy the new job!
Tybo Posted March 11, 2007 Report Posted March 11, 2007 WOOHOOOOOO, Its about time. No more babblings from Gerritt Tybo
Bernie Posted March 11, 2007 Report Posted March 11, 2007 Thats great news Gerritt Its great to have good people here like Headhunter. Hope you can still get a couple days to come up here fishing.
Corey Posted March 11, 2007 Report Posted March 11, 2007 Good stuff... I know Headhunter had something lined up for me as well, but I ended up taking a job much closer to home. Joe (Headhunter) is excellent to deal with and gives solid advice for people to tweak out their resume's and such and can find you a job if you have the right stuff. Enjoy the drive Gerritt cd.
