New Job

[SoCal2NYC]

So the "sick" day I was talking about the other day was actually for an interview. I didn't want to jinx it and say anything about it. But, it went very well so much that I was there for 2.5hrs and met with 9 people. I got called back the other day and met with the CEO for about another hour.
I got called a little while ago and they made me an offer...that I couldn't refuse!

congrats. good to see one area of this country having some lucrative offers out there. care to share what type of work?

 

[SoCal2NYC]

Men's Associate Buyer for a retailer here in NY.

Basically, what I initially came to NY to do and has taken me 2 years to finally get.

Congrats on the new job. So you've been in your current job for, what, 6 months?

 

[SoCal2NYC]

When I leave I will have been there for 10 months 3 weeks.

This job was just an escape from when I was at Saks because it offered me a position to put on my resume and $$$. I really had no desire to work in wholesale jewelry.

Hahaha I am fortunate enough to possess the ability to distinguish my own taste from a target market.

Congratulations, SoCal, I'm sure it's competitive in New York right now.

Can you say who the retailer is?

If not, is it high end retail or moderate?
