and told her I applied there. She was like no way and told her manager. Her manager got my resume and that was that. My sister asked me why didn't I say anything and to be quite honest, I totally forgot that she worked for the company that I applied to. Monday, I get a call for an interview on Tuesday afternoon. Tuesday comes, I'm amped, get a fresh haircut, busted out the suit, got ready and went on the HQ in Fort Lauderdale. The interview and everything went good and all that but I'm not gonna get my hopes up. The Interviewer told me that I was a good fit due to my experience but they still have other interviews and won't make a pick until Friday. So all there is left to do is wait and if it's not meant to be keep it moving. The next day, I'm on the usual ****, applying and calling jobs. I get a phone call, and it was the guy that Interviewed me where my sister worked at. The guy said that I was the best candidate for the position and wanted to make me an offer. I quickly accepted. I'm happy as **** and I start July 1st 
. I already sent in my offer sheet and other paperwork that needed to be filled out earlier this morning.
I dont normally do this but I'd like to share something, maybe it'll give you guys hope that are still looking.
On about almost mid May, I was working at a small IT company doing desktop support. It was a great environment, the staff was cool and so was the pay. 3 weeks later, I was unfortunately let go because to make a long stort, they couldn't afford to keep me (Last one in first one out). I was depressed and lost all motivation because I loved it there and saw myself growing with the company. So I went back to the drawing board and kept applying to jobs, bum rushing staff agencies the whole nine and nothing. I was this close to losing hope and was considering an option I'm very fond of and that was possibly go back to NJ. Now my sister at the time left her job for a better one with better pay. So one day my sister sends me some job apps she found over the internet and emails em to me from her work email.
So I got the email, and saw where she worked at and was like
I'm still in shock on how it happened since My new manager didn't have to wait til Friday (today!) to make a decision.
So for those still looking, no matter how hard it might be looking for a gig, don't give up.
Place sounds shady as hell man.. you could def do better. Keep applying and praying.
I usually do or a slacks, shirt, tie and a light cardigan. Maybe I need to change it up since that **** hasn't been working
How long have you been in the IT field and how'd you get started? I'm trying to break into the field now...
I started being a helper. I helped out the cook prep and clean. If it was busy out front, I'd help make drinks. Then I got trained to be a cook as well (which was just prepping and deep frying stuff mostly). Basically, I do everything and anything that needs to be done now. I've also been promoted to Shift Leader ($0.25 raise.) I work part-time(25-30 hours a week). There are people who have been working there months before me, and the owner asks me? 
its been a week so i gave them a call, we had some storms this week so they said they were behind, hoping for a call by friday, the lady i spoke with was the one i interviewed with and she didnt seem to happy to be talking to me
I've been in the field for 3 going on 4 years. For starters, I would advise on getting your A+ and the your Net+ to get doors open for you. So far going into the field was one of the more smarter decisions I've made. So if you're tech savvy, (I assume that you are) go for it
and the Net+ is almost $300. I need a gig in the field so they can pay for this ****
