Finally a job offer!!

**Jolt** · 03-16-2011, 08:52 AM

After almost a year of looking, I finally was offered a job as a nurse practitioner and just mailed in my signed contract today. I will be working on the hospitalist service (general inpatient medicine) of a community hospital in southern Maine. It will be a few months before I can start since there's a lot of paperwork that has to go through, but I am beyond excited right now! Now it's time to start looking at places to live up there...it seems like there's quite a bit to pick from and the rents are reasonable.

Congrats! and it sounds like not "just a job", but a good opportunity as well.

Cool! Next time we visit our families in Maine we'll have to look you up.

Which hospital did you get into?

Congrats. Just make sure you relax. Starting a new job is always stressful. I've found that a year or so ago the job market was really down/depressed, but over the last 12 months it's really improved, so good job!!

Wishing you luck!!

Yahoo! Congratulations!

Will you be anywhere near Portland?

That is so great, Jolt! What town will you be in?
I'll be up to visit in the summer!

I'll be in Sanford, which is about 45 minutes south of Portland. It's near Wells, Kennebunk etc.

Hey, I was born in Sanford! At a hospital that no longer exists.

Congratulations and I hope you love it!

Too funny...I noticed your location and I was born in the Bay Area! I don't remember living there though b/c I was not even 3 when we moved to the East Coast.

Yay! Congrats!

Congrats! Sounds like a good (and important) job. I've heard such good things about living in Maine.
