Job Search

Anyone that's ever tried to find a new job while still employed goes through the same thing it seems. Everyone I talk to has the same stories. Apply for fifteen gazillion jobs, hear back from 2-3 out of the gazillions, go to the interview, and likely not even hear about it again. Well I haven't got past the application process but even it is rearing it's ugly head. I got contacted today by a company wanting to set up an interview and I can't even remember what position it was I applied for. Needless to say I made a jackass out of myself by emailing the guy back asking what the positions responsibilities were (should already know from the ad). Hopefully that didn't do too much damage on my behalf.

It's really not that I don't like the job I have now, but I just don't feel like the current position is leading anywhere. I sit in an office with little to no interaction on a daily basis, and no opportunity to better myself which is becoming quite painful. I'd atleast like to be doing some professional development type stuff but NOOOOOOOOOOOO.
