As you may recall I have been doing the interviewing for our company for two sites that need management teams here in New Jersey. We found one couple for the Maple Shade location and they will start their training soon. I am still interviewing for our site but the flow of applicants has slowed down so we're exploring some new sites where we can advertise our opening. One site, that our HR director found is for WorkingCouples. It's a great site for couples who are looking for jobs where they can work together. The jobs range from hotel/motel management, self storage jobs such as ours, workamping jobs, property caretakers, etc. Couples can post their resumes, search by state or occupation and there is also a forum where they can discuss a variety of issues. What a neat site this is !
Another site I had recommended to our HR director was the Caretaker Gazette. This is similar to the other site but it seems to be for more upscale jobs. I used to subscribe to this a few years back but traveling to an island to housesit seemed to slip out of the realm of possibility when we bought our RV. This site and magazine has some unique offerings and many of them are in exotic locations. I think jobs such as these would be neat if I were young and just starting out without any family responsibilities or geographic limitations. How better to see the world than to hopscotch across the globe housesitting or working for short periods of time.
Meanwhile, in the land of Rahway....work continues to be busy. I tried to get some outdoor maintenance done today before the rain moves in. Once the wind picked up, I moved inside and started to spackle the dings and dents in the office walls. Tomorrow I'm going to go to Home Depot and pick up some paint so I can touch up these areas. Bit by bit we are getting things accomplished around here. Although it feels good to be making headway and getting the property in good shape for the new managers, we are getting antsy to go to a new location. Hopefully our new outreach will turn up some good candidates for interviews.
