Ultraflex Position in Pottstown

Found a position making prosthetics in Pottstown. The company makes Prosthetic limbs and anti-siezure apparatus. The position is a "Creative Apprentice" for 6 weeks. Basically, the job's not for everyone.

May 6th: Applied. Got an email within hours.

May 9th: Phone interview. They likely work and the type of experience I can offer. They've never had an industrial designer on the crew.

May 19th: Intended day of interview (since Graduation and Moving home will be taken care of.)

Wish me luck. The pay isn't forbes front-cover worthy, but'll be able to pay off some loans, and maybe buy another project for the summer.

Heavy-Gauge Plastics Position "Available"

Apr 3: My name, interested, and portfolio have officially been sent to a colleague of Kelly. Kelly is the man I've known for some time and just had an interview with. I showed more interest in the Heavy-gauge department, and he assured me that he'd get my work in front of the right eyes.

Apr 9: Had the interview. People seem interested in my work and the fact that I'm local. Although their primary intent is business and expansion, they DO still seem to have a passion for the people that work there or are interested with it. Maybe it's Philly desensitizing me to mean/nice people, but this was definitely the first series of interviews where I felt like they cared.

Apr 12-15: Some cat-and-mouse phone calls have resulted in an offer. It sounds like the position is a "new" position. It's a position in the one department, but the heavy-gauge department never had somebody employed there solely to create the models and cad drawing for the prototyping process. 

My biggest problem is hours right now. 

Apr 17: My mother's been looking for a job since Halloween. To keep the personal feelings out of it, I'll keep it short. I live in an area with very few businesses close. The closest place to work for is a Turnpike Rest stop. I worked there for 3+ years before/transitioning into college. She has ended up settling with a position there. She got an interview, and in conversation she mentioned I'll be graduating very soon. 

Apr 20: Received a Phone call from Brentwood. There's some conflict with my Summer class hours, and the company's weekly meeting on Wednesday nights. They know I'm interested and they said they'll keep the position "void" until I have the right availability to start. I will still be looking for other positions.

Apr 22: My old supervisor position at Starbucks had been dangled in my face. It's money, but it's not exactly what I saw myself doing post-graduation.

I will still be looking of employment. But the bottom line is, if nothing shows up by May 18th, I will take the Sbux position for 6 weeks.
