[QUOTE="xtscerguy, post: 130316"] Hmmmm, try to listen up now ABC. SCS is laying off 1200 people. Why would someone want to work for that side of the brownie? Why would anyone want to continue to work for any part of this company that treats its employees so bad? I used to work in Chicago. I couldve stayed but chose to go. My story has been posted before. Heres the thing. If you stay working there, the day will come when they leave you high and dry. And when they do, if you are in tsg, you will most likely not have the skill set needed to excel somewhere else. If you worked a general office or the helpdesk you will most likely have a better skill set then someone who worked a hub. People always said to me what a great tech I was and how I would have no problem finding a job. It took me three months to find one, and 9 out of 10 interviews that I went on, nothing technical was discussed. It all came down to whether or not the interviewer liked me, thought I would be a good fit etc. If your resume is put together correctly and you make the right connection at the interview you will get hired. I suggest putting everything on your resume that you are comfortable doing. If you set up a network at home, then put it on your resume that you know how to set up a network and say you did it at ups because who is going to tell otherwise?
