A day early is better than a day late

I’m back. At my workplace there is some talk about a contract position being posted. Right now I’m just relief staff. This could throw a wrench into my current massage therapy school plans but in this economy it’s tough to walk away from any job opportunity.

I haven’t made up my mind yet. Should I apply? Applications for this posting have to be received by April 1st. I’ll probably throw my name into the ring. What’s the worst that can happen? If I tank the interview at least I’ll have some interview experience going forward. Now if I actually get the job (which isn’t likely) then I’ll have a tough decision on my hand…

Weekly Update 03/12/09

The new website is going good and its beginning to get some traction. After only running for about two weeks I’m already up to close to 40 RSS/E-mail subscribers and about 100 hits per day.

If you haven’t checked it out yet give it a visit at pswjobs.com . Don’t forget to join the RSS and/or E-mail list for updates. I usually update the site with a couple of job opportunities once a day during the week.

As for my job its currently going well. No real changes as of yet, although there is a rumor going around that we may have a few more in-house job postings in the coming weeks.

That’s about all for now. See you next week!

My Attempt at a website: PSW Jobs

Hi all. I’ve tried my hand at creating a personal support worker related website after purchasing a new Mac (lovin’ it by the way)

Using a program named Rapid Weaver I’ve created a pretty simple site named PSW Jobs Dot Com . As the name states the website features listings for PSW Jobs. Currently I don’t have too many postings, basically a few listings I can find from around the net. I’ve e-mailed a number of employers and I’m waiting to hear back from the majority of them. I didn’t know this before I created the site but places like monster.ca charge something like $300 for one online job posting.

In the future I hope to improve my website creation skills and have the site become more fluid and up to date. As for now it still has some decent information and jobs for Ottawa, Toronto, etc.

I’ll be back with more info on the site and how I resolved a slight management/employment program at work early next week.

Have a good weekend.

PSW

Have you ever thought about becoming a personal support worker in the province of Ontario or in any other part of Canada?

Today’s PSW is one of the better paid positions vs time in school. Most courses only take a year to complete and the starting wage is right around $15.

PSW Jobs are in high demand, yet many employers simply cannot fill up all of their required positions.

 PSW Canada

This is due to many factors, including the baby boomer retirement period that we are currently in. 

You may enter a personal support worker school at either the college or private level. A college certficate may carry more weight with some employers but it is more expensive than a private education.

 

For more info on these topics and anything else, you can visit Personals Support Worker PSW, the internet’s #1 PSW website.
