I'm a Wanderer

Mike has become quite the little traveler the past month. As his resume was received by different companies, there were a couple that were quite eager to fly him out to their location (notice he had to fly... again, nothing here in Arizona... boo...) so he spent a good amount of time at the airport. Here's an overview of his trips:

Trip #1:

(Mike called me and said "Guess where I am?" What a meanie!)

Location: Los Angeles, California (interviewing for a job in Ohio)
Company: Applied Signal Technology (he also interviewed with ImSar while he was up there)
Time away: 1 night
Outcome: Really good offer (we have to respond by Friday)


Trip #2:
Location: Salt Lake City, Utah
Company: Applied Signal Technology (he also interviewed with ImSar while he was up there)
Time away: 2 nights (he got there Thursday night and asked them if he could stay an extra night so he could spend some time with his family before flying back - they were kind enough to oblige us!)
Outcome: No word from ImSar, but AST made him pick which location he wanted an offer from and he was more interested in the Ohio job. Sorry family in Utah! Just wasn't right for us right now!


Trip #3:
Location: San Jose, California (for San Jose or Sacramento postitions)
Company: Northrup Grumman
Time Away: 1 day (flew out that morning, flew back that night - long day!)
Outcome: Expecting an offer from San Jose this week


Trip #4:
This is the view outside Mike's hotel window. He couldn't believe how green it was!
Location: Baltimore, Maryland
Company: Northrup Grumman
Time Away: 2 nights
Outcome: Expecting an offer this week


So, as you can see, Mike's been very busy. We're excited for all the attention his resume has been getting him but are anxious to make our decision this week. As I said, we're expecting 2 more offers before we make any official decisions, so we'll just leave it at that for now. Watch for an update shortly about where the AZ Laudie's will be settling down in the coming months.

Wow! We hope things work out for you guys.

AND you were in Baltimore, Mike? Next time you come out here, call us! We'll come see you! Or have you over!

Good luck with the new little one as well!
