Trudging On

Ammon had another interview for a job near here this week. It's odd, because the company that is actually looking for employees hired an entirely different firm to recruit for them, handling all the advertising, interviewing, and skills testing required. For the past several days Ammon has been taking online tests for this recruiter, attempting to showcase the skills that he has and further broaden his knowledge. He's been doing a lot of studying, and I had to dig out several of his textbooks, so it's eerily as though he's back in school again. Yesterday Ammon drove to Cincinnati for an interview with this recruiting company, and although he isn't terribly optimistic that he'll get the job he actually interviewed for, the recruited seemed very interesting in continuing to help Ammon search for employment with one of their other clients. We're very hopeful that this is possibly the connection we've been waiting on, as it seem promising that this recruiting company has ties to several different companies ranging all the way from Northern Kentucky to Central Ohio. The recruiter's eyes lit up when Ammon explained that we are highly motivated to find employment and are willing to relocate to any of these areas. For now, we are still in waiting mode, but it feels good to at least feel as though we have some promising leads.
