For those of you who have recently been in a heart wrenching job hunt (like my friend Dave, who applied to over 40 schools, or Kristen who got multiple on campus interviews that waited a month to tell her what they decided, or me, who had to move to Texas, or most of the real live adults in this world who have been out of work for a long time due to the the economy) let me tell you a story about my fiancee, who is apparently the most hirable woman in the country.
Today at 11:40 Phone call from a school that Cortney has had no previous contact with besides sending in her resume cold.
"Hello miss Korshak, we have your resume. We would like to interview you for a position at our school. Can you come in today?"
"Well I would love to but I am in chicago right now and you are in Texas and I am getting married in 4 days so I can't come down right now."
"Oh ok, well can we interview you over the phone later today?"
Today at 1:20 Phone interview, goes pretty well.
Today at 2:50
"Hello Miss Korshak, how would you like to get married and get a job all in one week...by the way, we need to know by 4:00?"
Oh yes that's right my friends. Cortney went through the hiring process in 5 hours. Let us also keep in mind that her track record for her career is now
2 phone interviews = 2 jobs
This does not count the time she told a school she wasn't interested in interviewing with them becuase they also wanted to make her the head soccer coach.
Apparently Cortney can't miss. I have decided that next time we move I am going to move I am just going to be

Your dream might show up tomorrow. Be prepared.Don't wait a second. If you have higher goals, put them into action now.
Tell your fiancee, on behalf of all of us who have been job hunting without success for the better part of two years, that we hate her. Also congrats!
