hi we're strangers to each other but i did a google web search for "san francisco homeless services coalition" (in quotes like that) and your lj was one of the hits, so i cached the response and read this post.... i accidentally scheduled an interview for tomorrow (i meant to just ask for more information when she said "so, we'll see you at 11 then?") and had some uneasy feelings about what i was getting into....... i'm glad to see i wasn't the only one who had doubts about this offer. :)

i'm also brand new to the bay area -- just got here on sunday evening -- and job hunting / apartment hunting. i think i just found a place today in berkeley with a friend, but i think i'll need to scope sfhsc out a little more before tripping into an interview tomorrow.

that's all! hope you welcome my intrusion! :)

haha no problem at all. isn't it ironic that even in the realm of social work people try to scam one another?

i would definitely continue your job search instead of going to interview with sfhsc. they were very friendly and welcoming, but all they want you to do is pass out flyers on the street asking for donations to the organization. also, the pay is dirt. hardly a salary to pay rent on. the "interview" is a cattle call. you and several other people will be there for an "orientation" at 11:00 am.

congratulations on finding a place! i wish you luck in finding a job.
