    Prayer request: Job interview Thursday

    As many of you know, I was laid off recently due to a funding/schedule problem at work. I have an interview for a new job this coming Thursday and I'd appreciate your prayers. It's been a long time since I've interviewed and it kind of nerve wracking...

    Thanks.

    Good luck on the job interview, Pauline!! Prepare, and check out the company, you may also have some relevant questions for them.

    Think of it this way, they'll be losing out if they don't hire you!

    Will be sending positive thoughts your way!

    Pauline I can sympathize with you because changing jobs is one of the big stresses in life. I have been at my present job for 10 years and the idea of going on an interview now is not something I even want to think about! I know you will WOW them with your sweet personality even before they ask about your qualifications/skills. Try to go in there with the attitude that if I don't get it, it was not the perfect job for me. That's what I told myself 10 years ago. Good luck and (((hugs)))!

    Good luck Amberlee! Have you talked to Sara about the interview? She probably has quite a few very good pointers and might at least calm your neves a little.

    Good luck!!

    Pauline, Randi is correct. You will be interviewing them as well to be sure this is a place where you want to spend a good portion of your day.

    Your own abilities and talents will just shine, I am sure of it.

    I will be thinking all good thoughts for you this Thursday.

    Thank you all.

    My, I wasn't clear when I wrote it up, was I?

    It's a sister division (one that I worked for previously) of the company I was just released from and on the same campus I just was working at. My boss had reviewed open reqs while I was on vacation and recommended that I apply for the job. It's not my precise training, but work I've done before and have been good at, too. It turns out the hiring manager and the two people he'd delegated to do the hiring are former coworkers from another project -- they are really good people. I would like to get this one; my big worry is that they are requesting expertise in a software I've never used (or heard of till this req came up...) Jack, my former boss, doesn't think this is a big deal as I've done the work manually before and catch on quick (so he thinks) to software.

    Edwina's Secretary called me this morning and reviewed/covered a bunch of interviewing do's and don't's. Isn't she a sweetie? I'm reviewing my resume and practicing the pointers she gave me.

    *remember to breathe, remember to breathe*! (It's been decades since I've been on this side of the interview table. !)
