In which a nice girl is lured to New Jersey

2007 has arrived with an exciting new twist... coming at the perfect time.  I moved to Hamilton, Ontario (after spending 4 years in London, UK) and moved into my little house exactly 5 years ago this month.  The goal at the time was to spend 5 years here, living near my family and developing a stable career. 

Last month I had a job interview for a consulting position in the United States.   After the interview, I realized that I really did not want to leave Canada permanently.  So the company agreed to transfer me back to Canada after six months employment with them.   The offer letter finally arrived today, and they have made me an offer I can't refuse - a senior consulting position and the opportunity to be the first consultant based in Canada.

Its a growing, dynamic, ambitious company... and an excellent career move for me. 

So in one month for now I will be living in a little flat in New Jersey, flying to consulting gigs across the US.  I promise to gather lots of blog material on the road -- there's a plethora of interesting people out there.

This is the last time I'll discuss my work, though - blogging about employers is a quick route to unemployment.

Stories of random American strangers are much more entertaining regardless.
