I must admit: September's "hiring binge" was on a starvation diet. Feeling nervous and contemplating whether to abandon ship and start looking for other types of work, I rang my Favourite Recruiter, aka Mark. Since he knows my skill set and background, I decided he was the best person to advise me about what other roles I could potentially seek out.
This morning, post-conversation, I woke up all bushy-tailed to start crafting a Business Analyst resume (I already composed several cover letters back in June- Business Analyst, e-Learning Specialist, Content Developer, Copywriter, etc.). So you can imagine my surprise when I found several new Technical Writing postings waiting in my Inbox. I consequently spent the morning submitting applications to almost a half dozen companies. I guess the September binge wound up sliding into October this year!
For now, this Tech Writer says "Thank Goodness"! Sure, I am still going to massage my resume into Business Analyst mode. But It just goes to show that you never know when that job you were waiting for is going to come along. Best to always be prepared- and never give up hope!
Happy job hunting!
