Our2,

I'm going through the same thing right now & changing careers.. definitely a scary/exciting time.

I mentioned my reffing ( I go year round with soccer and ball), and didn't get shot down during my initial interview. I'm got called in for the final interview on Friday, so I'm guessing it's something they are willing to work around.

My advice is to let prospective employers know ( is officiating mentioned on your resume?). Being an official shows an interviewer that you can make quick decisions, and do well in a challenging environment. These are skiils that employers can use.

Best of luck in your job search, it ain't easy..
