So this is Steve--don't worry, Suzanne still has her awesome tenured job. After returning from Fresno for my summer internship I have had the hardest time finding a job for the school year. I recall searching for jobs here in the past, and I can safely say that there are fewer openings and more applicants these days. On multiple occasions, I would get a mass BCC email response saying that they received 100-200 applications in just one day, so to have patience in the mean time. Hummffff. Well I stuck in there and applied to anything feasible. There were several perfect jobs that I didn't get until a couple days ago.
Last week I had a stellar interview that I knew would land me a job, and sure enough, this Monday I got a call with an offer. The company is called Tax Hawk and they are located in south Provo (State Street towards Springville, by cemetery). The company runs an online tax preparation program, and I will be helping clients with any questions they have while filling out their taxes online. The job is just for tax season, so January through April 15, but I do get a few weeks prior to the holidays to get trained and re-learn everything I have tried to forget about taxes.
The pay is good and the job function is intelligent, but most of all it is a relief to just have a job. This semester has been boring with only 3 classes and nothing else to occupy my time. Next semester also has only 3 classes, but this job should fill my schedule and help restore my sanity.
