So I think I am getting offers on both jobs. The recruiters at work said I can expect them both my Thursday or Friday, then I just need to pick. I am the only candidiate the interviewed for events so that one is definate but I feel really good about the consulting role as well. I am planning on moving forward with the events role since it's what I have been striving for in my career for quite some time. I will be planning and implementing our trade shows, dinner events, and some local client events. I am so so excited, it will be my first post grad job without a quota!!
I will be doing a lot of business travel (50-60% travel) so I have been bugging the MM board for tips and tricks so I can maximize my points/miles to earn the full benefits of the travel. I am going to throw myself a party this weekend to celebrate once it becomes official. I think I might cry from excitement.
I think that kind of job sounds really fun. If I wasn't a teacher, I feel like with the right training I could be good at something like that. Congrats on potentially getting 2 offers. That sounds awesome and so exciting!
Congrats! Glad everything worked out. I was reading your other post b/c everyone offered such great suggestions. How does your work handle travel days that fall on the weekend? did you get extra PTO or is it expected? I'm sure that would effect how I booked travel.
ITS OFFICIAL. I just accepted the marketing events role and withdrew from the other position. My manager and the new manager are negotiating start date but I should be transitioning within three weeks.
I AM SO EXCITED.
I also need to adjust our budget since I will no longer get commission. Lol. But quite frankly I don't care because I am going to be happyyyy.
