North Coast Hot Jobs Dec. 1

Hello fellow job seekers. Here is the link to this week's North Coast Hot Jobs listing.https://www.scribd.com/doc/248656375/North-Coast-Hot-Jobs-Dec-1-2014

So, we recently had some snowfall in the area. The forecast calls for below freezing temperatures for part of the rest of the week. This could lead to slippery road conditions, such as frost and/or black ice. I have lived in cold weather climates such as Minnesota, Eastern Washington and Alaska. People there are familiar with how to drive under these conditions. People here are not accustomed to driving on slippery roads, so they tend to not drive carefully. So, in this location when the temperatures drop below freezing you have to be aware of the road conditions and also how others are driving.

To those of you who are not experienced driving on slippery roads, here are some tips. Remember that four wheel drive does not give you permission to drive like normal. It is still difficult to slow down. Keep adequate room between your vehicle and the one ahead of you. Slow down ahead of time when coming to a stop sign or red light. Accelerate gradually. Do not make any jerky movements. Keep all windows clean (no peephole driving).

That's all for this week. Have a good one.

So, I hope everyone has recovered from our annual cold snap. Before winter officially starts here, the temperature dips way below normal for a few days. It is back to normal though, but the temperatures will gradually begin to get lower.

Thanksgiving holiday is coming up. In some cases, offices will be closed this Friday. Also, some places will be closed on Thanksgiving as well. So, plan accordingly.

On the job front, the following organizations have many jobs open; Westport Shipyard, Olympic Medical Center and Home Depot. See the North Coast Hot Jobs listing for more info.

Ok, that is all for this week. Have a Happy Thanksgiving. And for all those who are unemployed, hopefully organizations in this area will hire you soon. Hire me also.

Have a good one.

For those of you in unemployment land, do not be discouraged. I keep telling others that employers will eventually run out of networked connections to hire and will select me.

I have submitted many job applications this year. For example, since January this year, I have applied for 16 jobs at the local hospital and 10 jobs at the local community college. I have had no interviews at the hospital and one at the college.

Ok, I have stuff to do so I can't spend too much time here this week. Have a good one.

Angeles Composite Technologies, Inc. is hiring. They use WorkSource Clallam for the first step in their hiring process. So, go down to WorkSource Clallam at 228 West First St (Armory Square Mall) in Port Angeles and ask about ACTI. They will possibly have you get enrolled in KeyTrain assessment tools to gauge your potential to do their type of work. You can find out more info on ACTI at their website here, http://www.angelescomposite.com/

Still many, many jobs open at Westport Yachts. Go here for more info, http://www.westportyachts.com/careers/

Personally, I don't want anyone's thanks for serving in the military. I just want a job.

Ok, that's all for this week. Have a good veterans day week.

I hope everyone reset all their clocks. One that a lot of people forget is the clock in your vehicle. Then, you have to find the manual because it's been six months since you changed the time last.

The Olympic Medical Center has four new jobs this week. Here is their hyperlink, http://www.olympicmedical.org/default.aspx?ID=16. They ask that you fill out their application and email this along with other documents. For your information, their human resources department is busy, so they rarely acknowledge they received your email. Also, if you do not hear from someone there soon, then do not expect a response. They also rarely let you know if you were not selected.

Office Depot has added two new jobs. They now have a total of eight jobs open. Just remember when you apply for this type of job, the emphasis is on sell, sell, sell.

Okay, that is all for this week. Have a good one.
