it's a job!

Recruiting season has FINALLY ended.
Talk about the longest but shortest 2 months ever.

Let me break it down for ya.

Jared applied to 9 different companies.

From those 9 companies he received

6 first round interviews.

From those 6 first round interviews, he received

4 second round interviews… in 4 different states.

Spokane Washington

Medford Oregon

Boise Idaho

Crete Nebraska.

And from those 4 second round interviews,

He received 2 (HOLLER!) job offers.

A job in Medford, Oregon

And a job in Boise, Idaho.
***
EDIT 11.30.12
make that 3 job offers... we just heard back from Crete Nebraska!
***

We were THRILLED.

But pretty stumped on which job to take.

Remember how I said jared wanted a job in public accounting?

Well, the job offer in Medford was his ideal job.

A Public Tax Accountant.

so i thought for sure Medford Oregon

was going to become our new home.

and then Boise Idaho threw in a very

unique offer working for a private company.

And so we needed to choose,

between 2 VERY different career paths.

The public route, like jared had always thought he would do,

or the private route.

It was a VERY difficult decision to make,

but after lots of prayers,

we knew the job in Boise, Idaho was

Jared’s.

*insert happy dance here*

I am SO EXCITED to be moving back to southern Idaho.

i grew up living and traveling all over the world,

And never in a million years would I have ever thought

that Idaho would become my home.

But truth is, i LOVE it here.

We are so very excited and feel so blessed to have

a job when so many don’t.

Now we just need to get jared through 1 more semester

of school, and then it’s off to BOISE IDAHO

at the end of may to *finally* start our adult career.

We can wait!
