Hey Tink......thinking about you and your interview today!! Trying to send prayers, good thoughts and just all around good vibes your way. Let us know how things go....:)

Tink 03-23-2007 08:31 AM

Thanks for all the loving support. You ladies are wonderful!
I just got home from my interview and am almost afraid to say I think it went very well! Since it's nearly impossible to really tell this without giving the specific job I'm trying to get, I feel it's time to tell you all that it's for Editor of a small town newspaper.

The owner of the paper and his business manager did the interview. The owner has several different businesses all in the same building, and has this other man overseeing them all for him.

Anyway, it's the first interview I've actually enjoyed! I really liked both of them, and they seemed to like me too. We were laughing and smiling and shared a lot of the same views on how things should be done. They were telling me they were very happy with how much writing I've done and that I have so much expereince on the internet, since the paper is submitted to a printer electronically. I'm surprised that my experience is so dead on for what they deem important!

The owner stressed that this is very much a family oriented business, so my 6 yrs working at a parenting site convinced him that I am a family oriented person too, so should fit right in. They went over the job description with me, invited me to ask any questions I might have, etc. The owner was making it clear he wanted to hire me right then and there, and asked the other man if he wanted to explain the salary and benefits package to me... at which time the employee told him "We need to back up just a bit since we do have one other person coming in yet to interview."

Since the interview I want the job even more! It seems I have the owner rooting for me, so I do have a good shot at getting it unless the other applicant really blows their socks off.

So they sent me home still in the running, saying they'd be calling my referrences, meet with the other applicant, and plan to set up a second interview to go over salary, benefits, and the like. So now I'm praying HARD that I get this job. I seriously didn't think I had any chance before, but now that it seems I do, I'm absolutely wanting to have it!

Janet 03-23-2007 08:54 AM

Oh my goodness, what a wonderful job opportunity!!! I am praying so hard that you get this position Tink. It does sound very much in your favor doesn't it. Now I'm all excited too!!! Let's all keep positive thoughts for Tink getting this job.

Go Tink!!!!

AngieDoogles 03-23-2007 09:58 AM

Tink, that's so exciting!!! I knew they would just love you! :) It sounds like you pretty much have the job and that it will be perfect for you! Congratulations!!! :thumbup: :congrats: :bravo:
