In reply to Two Job Interviews Tomorrow, posted by Poet on February 19, 2007, at 15:50:28
I was about ten minutes late to the first one- freeway traffic was horrid so I had to take side streets. I called her and told her I was running late and she didn't seem to notice I should have already been there. So maybe I ended up calling attention to it, but at least she knows being late bothered me. I would like to work there, only one fulltime person and three part time, very quiet. I would have to deal with some of the general public, but they'd be looking for specific information or forms. I can use a calculator to make change if they buy a form or use the copiers. She said she'd make a decision within a week.
Nothing about interview one cared me, I just left with the feeling that I was late and therefore blew it.
Second interview I meet with three people, one of which seemed abrupt, but I would have little contact with him. They did emphasis that I have no experience in their field (well, I did, but I don't mention working for five weeks and getting fired) but they also said that with training I would catch on. It would be using a lot of forms to do documents and I know I can do that. They use WordPerfect, which I haven't used in a decade or more, but I can relearn. I hope I impressed them with my willingness to learn and desire for experience in the field. He said he was making a decision within 24 hours, so one way or another I'll soon know. I hope he calls as I've been waiting years to hear back from interviewers who say they're calling tomorrow.
I know I could do either job. Keep those fingers crossed that the one that is right for me is the one that hires me.
