5 Months Update

So it has been 5 months since I graduated - and it sure has been an interesting time. I've had to move home, and had to explore other options that I didn't anticipate before. As a backup plan, I'm having to take the GRE if things don't pan out. I'd really like to work, but as of right now the market isn't ready. I've had now about 8 interviews since my graduation, and so far I have not had any offers. I know most people search for jobs a little over 6 months after graduating, but in these times I guess I have to be patient. I know my strengths and credentials on my resume are strong, I just have to find the right employer at the right time.

I'm sitting in on graduate classes to further my education and I'm working an unpaid internship as a bike mechanic at Jack and Adams, in addition to participating in Texas 4000. This is definitely an interesting time for me, because I seriously don't know what is going to happen to me from one month to the next.

We'll see where this'll take me.
