Adam's new job

We have been wanting to move up to Davis County for sometime now, well maybe just I have been DYING to move back up to Davis County! Adam will be graduating from BYU this week which means that we are free to move where ever the job takes us. Adam has been applying for a few different positions within Zions Bank until he decides what he wants to be when he grows up. He applied for a few new accounts positions, a compliance position, and a loan position. Over the last week he has been driving back and forth going in for interviews and what not.

Last week, Adam drove up to West Valley for an interview for the Loan Specialist position. When he got there he asked the front desk for the lady with whom he would be interviewing but when she came out to meet him she was puzzled because she wasn't scheduled to have any interviews until the following day. She was gracious and let him interview for the position anyway. They talked for about 45 minutes or so about the position and then he was on his way. Well on the way home Adam recieved a phone call from the HR department to inquire why he didn't show up for the interview. Then it quickly became obvious that he had interviewed with the wrong person! So a second interview was set up for the following day. Well, you know how it goes at the end of the semester when all of the stress if finally lifted, the first thing that happens is you get sick! Adam didn't make it to the second interview because he was in bed with something not so pleasant. This time we figured the loan position was pretty much out of the question.

Well, on Monday HR called Adam again to set up another interview for this loan position. We were almost shocked they called back. He went to the interview Tuesday morning (and made sure he interviewed with the right person this time) then by Wednesday he was offered the position! Less than 24 hours after the "real" interview. We feel very blessed to have this new job, not to mention that it almost triples our income!! It is times like these that we know that the Lord is truely watching out for our family and knows what is best for us!
