Message: I took a position for six weeks within the banking entity of Wells Fargo and quit after six weeks. I have a BA and recently attained my MA in curriculum development. I resigned because I felt my skills were not being utilized. (I know this is a vague explanation, but I am abbreviating the explanation)During this time of unemployment I finished my master's and took technical classes and am at this time looking actively for employment. I like the philsophy of WF and would like to get back with the company. Last week I applied for a position in WF Mortgage, and received a call for a telephone interview. At the end of the interview I mentioned working previously for the company, and provided the interviewer with a simple explanation. My question(s) is: Do you think there is a chance getting back into WF? Did I address the situation appropriately? Any suggestions from anyone would be appreciated on how I should handle this situation. For your information, I do not have a track record of leaving a position within a few weeks. I have a loyal background to my employees. Thank you for any responses that may help me. Darcy
