Since december last year I’ve been registered at monster which as most of you know is a job-site. Not that I’m actively looking for something new but in the line of keeping my eyes open and making sure that I don’t close any unnecissary doors. I’ve placed some applications for jobs but have had little in reward for the time spent. However these past three weeks have been different.
I have gotten calls from about seven different companies which four did turn into an interview and a fifth is comming up next week (we’ll see about that one though). Apart from the obvious benefit from these interviews it feels really good to have gotten alot of practice on these situations since I haven’t been in that many.
Most of them turned out great and I felt really good as I left their respective office. However this monday I wen’t to an interview at Peak-IT, a consultant company which I’ve heard really good roumors about. To make a loong story short I left their building with a rock in my stomache and a thought somewhere in the line of being an idiot and making a complete fool out of myself. I had a hard time finding good expressions and left alot of questions with very bad answers. So, I was really suprised when they two hours later called me and booked a second interview the day after.
This interview went much better I felt more at home and I was better prepared for what kind of questions they were going to ask, I also flet that I managed to express alot better. I ended up leaving their building with a contract to read through and a job offer.
I asked for little less than a week to think it over but when I walked out that door I had almost already made up my mind. I did call them the next day and told them that I’d decided to take their offer. So I was there yesterday and signed the papers and I also filled out a form to quit my current job.
It seems like it’s going to be a smooth transfer really since my current projekt is until 31th August and the job at Peak-IT starts 1st September.
Even if I’m very excited about my new job I can’t help but feel alittle regret over walking out of the corridors that I’ve walked in for the past three years. During this time I’ve meet alot of interesting and fun people and I’ve also had some really interesting assignments. Not to mention all the great oppertunities that I’ve come across.
TechTeam has been really good to me and the best that they did was that they really made me want my job to be something more than a just a job that I had to got to every single day. Something that I really wanted to go to every single day.
Time goes by and things change. Just a little annoyance we know as life.

Awsome! Great to hear about the new job. I think I’ve visited the company in question… it was in Solna… think it was located in the same building as the Police.
They may have been located there earlier, although now they were in the skyscraper besides råsunda. TechTeam however is in the same building as the police
Aha it might have been TechTeam that I visited. Was a weird lady that double booked us on the first visit and forgot that we where booked on the second visit. She seemed to think it was our fault that she had forgotten…. weird old lady
Hahaha, no one likes wierd old ladies!
