[QUOTE="scrltrider, post: 1422741, member: 55133"] I went on the tour today, had an interview afterwards, which I felt really good about, maybe naive on my part I realize. Anyway, I went in for the position of package handler, which is a permanent position. I was told about the position of seasonal Coordinator Helper. I expressed my reservations as it's a seasonal job but was told it was a way to get my foot in the door and if they liked me & vice versa we could look into something permanent. They are running my background check (24/48 hours). I was told to think about things and when I'm contacted we can discuss things further. My background: female, 44, Bachelors Degree. I would prefer the package handler position, 1. it's permanent not seasonal 2. I was really looking forward to the physical aspects of the position...I really don't want to sit behind a computer again 3. I feel strongly about working your way from the ground up The question is, how do I let them know this without sounding ungrateful? I had the feeling I was being pushed towards the coordinator helper position and the phrase "It's a way to get your foot in the door" (said a couple of times) makes me think I don't have a shot at package handler... I apologize for the long post, hope I'm not raked over the coals too much! Thank you! [/QUOTE]
