Guest Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 I had a pretty good first interview. I always count it as a good thing when the interviewer laughs at something you want them to laugh at. She said I should hear back today about whether or not I’ll be interviewing with the team. I kinda wish she had said it would be longer, and then surprised me with getting back. Now I’ll be expecting it all day. But, I know they got a lot of applicants, LinkedIn shows 91 applicants through that platform, and I got through to the first interview, so that’s something.

Iceheart Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 That is something! I’m 99% sure I got the job. The interview included things like “you’ll be the perf... I mean you’ll be the point person” and “you already have a broad knowledge of the products, so that will be so much easier.” But they’ll tell me officially by next Wednesday.

Iceheart Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 Yup! Still not trying to get too excited until it's in the bag, tho. How sad is that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 Well, I’m not moving forward with this one. There’s another job I want to ask her about, though, and share some of my other experience. But I’m going to wait before I respond. Maybe I’ll get to it tonight or tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 I’m starting to feel really discouraged. The work related anxiety and depression is really messing with me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iceheart Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 I wish there was something I could do to turn your brain off for you. Just remember it’s temporary, you’ll find the right job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 I’m having my second drink of the night, so hopefully that’ll help my brain shut down. I finished off a bottle of whiskey and now I’m finishing off some vodka. So I’m probably on the equivalent of drinks 3 and 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 Okay, moving on to a different bottle of vodka. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iceheart Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 I am highly impressed. I'd be good for nothing today if I was drinking hard liquor. You're Iron Man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 I did sleep in, but that was more based on staying up late and the nightly 2 AM panic attack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iceheart Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 I just accepted the job offer. I start the 28th. It's a $2 dip in pay, but that's actually okay - I'm still in the process of getting disability, and there's a cap on what you can earn to qualify, so this should keep me comfortably within limit.

Guest Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 Yay! I'm glad it worked out. That's gotta be a relief. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iceheart Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 Thanks! I've texted everyone worthy of hearing the news first hand, and changed my LinkedIn employment status and updated my profile... and it's still not real to me. Probably won't be until next Monday.

Darth Ender Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 This is awesome! Congratulations! So I applied for a job and went to the the Zoom school board meeting and noticed that they listed my name as an attendee on the official public school board notes. I had my camera and mic off the whole time. I didn't know they would publish that.... Ugh.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Ender Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 Boom....I have an interview. It is a 6 hour drive (it deep in the mountains with lots of twists and turns) so I am tempted to take a half day, but I think I will save that in case I make it to the next round.

LOL no....It is actually a resort town (not Aspen). I think I am going to go ahead and make the drive and leave at lunch. I think what killed me in the final round of the month long interview process I did in the summer was that I couldn't read anyone's body language. I couldn't tell if my joke's were landing or if I needed to wrap up answers...etc. Oh...are you making face masks on your etsy store? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
