Back in May I was let go from my job of 3 years when a new director of construction came in. I took it as a sign to spend the summer with my kids. Fast forward to August I start applying to jobs and interviewing pretty heavily. I interviewed with the biggest developer in my area, who had projects in my city. They ended up putting the job on hold and let me know I was a top candidate and would keep my resume. Two weeks ago I accepted a job with a much smaller company who is trying to expand into a small general contractor. This position included an hour commute for me both ways. My role was to start helping them build towards that and get work. I started last week and received an email from the first company wanting me to come in for another interview. They extended me a job offer same day. Tomorrow I will be quitting after exactly one week of work. I feel bad, but this job is more in line with my career path and a much better opportunity. Wish me luck!
