…please keep me in your thoughts and prayers. Of all the resumes I’ve sent out, I dropped one off at a printing place here in town yesterday, and today they checked up on references – they called the grad student I work with (and who used to work at this printing place) for a reference.
I’m desperate for an interview at the very least, and would be over the moon to just have the job. It offers experience that I need in printing and has a chance at a supervisory role down the line.
Please pray for me/send good thoughts my way. I just want to be able to pay my rent without help again! (although I’d love that experience too)
Prayers, Hugs and crossed fingers, toes and eyes (though that does make typing a bit hard 😆 ) Good luck, good luck, good luck!!

Oh, I hope you get it! But isn’t checking references before the interview kinda weird? In my experience, references are the last thing before you get hired…

I dunno, I can see it both ways. Why waste time interviewing if the references are bad? Plus, the grad student they called used to work at this place, so I can see them calling to see what she thinks of me, since she’s working right next to me every day. She spent five years there, used to be a supervisor and they’ll call her from time to time as a relief person if someone is gone.
Sounds promising if they are already checking references. Good luck and prayers for you also.
Keep us posted 😀Clicky please
