Turns out the job is in Chilliwack, so warmer winters but much colder and rainier summers. I'd be about 2 hours east of Vancouver. He also said that he'd pass on my resume but wasn't sure that they'd go for me being a step below the woman who had left the job. My salary would be about the same as it is now, which is lower than their ad because they were looking for more experience. Now I don't know what to think. I'm kind of bummed about it.

well I gave it a couple hours and I feel better lol. I did some more research into Chilliwack and wikipedia is wrong about their climate. Summers are about the same as here, winters are much much warmer, plus I'd still get a little snow and gorgeous mountain views. I was excited about Vancouver in the beginning, but Chilliwack isn't that far away, plus cost of living would be way less, and there's possibly a better chance of finding rentals that would allow Layla. Basically my big plan in the first place was to get out of Saskatoon, not necessarily to Vancouver, but just somewhere different. I think I could deal with Chilliwack
 We'll see if the employer decides to contact me after seeing my resume.

Well, they like me. He called back and already they told him they want to set up a phone interview. I'm so excited I'm almost jumping out of my skin! Time to research the company tonight, and look at cost of living in Chilliwack so I can think about a salary range if they ask

Well I spoke earlier with the recruiter again, he gave me tips on the interview which he is also going to email to me... oh yeah and my interview is TOMORROW at noon. I'm so nervous. I've got some plans this evening but as soon as I get home I will be preparing for tomorrow's interview by making notes of all the projects I can remember working on in the past year and a half. Wish me luck!
