[QUOTE="whiskeyagogo, post: 643234, member: 12350"] If you work in North Jersey or near the Atlanta campus, then an IS-type job might be up your alley (esp. NJ). You don't sound like you would be happy with TSG; based on comments here and from talking to some of them, they are doing less and watching their numbers dwindle. IS did have layoffs this year and will probably have more next year but in this economy, that is to be expected. Actual layoffs in IS are rare, this is the first round I've been through in 16 years with IS. Be prepared - with a Anthem/Chubb degree, you'll probably have to start with some kind of shift work. If you aren't willing to do nights or holidays to get your foot in the door, IS may not be for you; shift work isn't for everyone. And if you do get laid off, working for UPS for a year or two will help you land a bigger job. They are doing little hiring right now, so I think you can be pretty assured the few openings are *really* needed and will probably stick around. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
