I received an email from them and replied back to them stating i was semi interested but wanted to discuss the salary...i went for 50k but they didnt bite...and after negotiations i got them down to 48. I would've settled with 45 but hell...i like 3k extra

yeah unless you completely screw up w/in that period of time *cough* TARK *cough* then you should be fine. you might also want to consider if its a position thats being fought over for and who else there might be that could possibly take it besides you. if things look clear, go at it.

They actually found me on careerbuilder. I had just updated my resume and like a week later i got the email and i replied back as soon as i saw the email.


O and to TaekOne...I know there are several other people that are being considered for this position as well. Im not even sure if i have it but im pretty confident i have it. But you do bring a good point up because if they are looking for numerous individuals to bring on to lighten a load but at the same time, they all are going to be fighting over one position. I dont want to go into a predicament like that. The money would be nice but fighting over a position is not something i wanna do in a contract position

If you put "2005 CBOTY" on your resume, they'll hire you on the spot.
