Help Please! A Day To My New Job Resumption Date, The Owner Of The Company Died by Onlydaughter(f): 6:03pm On Apr 30, 2019
This happened earlier this month of April, I was interviewed for the post of Secretary for a reputable company on the island. After series of interview questions and even taking an immediate practical test on my typing skills, I got the job.
On the day I was to resume, I got another call saying I shouldn't come as the owner of the company just passed away and there will be no one available to attend to me and that I should give them some time.

Now I'm confused, should I forget about the job and continue my job hunt that has lasted for a while now until I finally got this. Or should I wait.
I mean this job was a nice shot I got with a very good pay, and a good distance from my house.

Do both to be on the safer side. While waiting for their call, don't relent on your job hunt.

I kept on applying for other jobs but no luck.

Two months later I was called again to start the following week in the said job as the secretary. The company is now been run by a partner and family.

So I work there now and it has been a good ride all through.

Thank you all. I appreciate.
