The interview went VERY well. I have another interview next week with the General Mgr . and publisher. Ms. Hunt told me she was very impressed with the by-lines I sent to her. She told me that she's looking for someone with my experience that will fit into the newsroom. She asked me if I would be willing to start off part-time for a couple of months just to get my feet wet. I said ABSOLUTELY!! The person whose place their looking to fill won't be leaving for good till sometime in February.
She asked me if I had any questions for her. I asked her if I was not the one chosen for the position, would it be possible to write for them as a freelancer on a "Pet of the Week" column. I told her I have alot of contacts with various rescue organizations, ACO's and am actively involved in animal rescue. She said not to short change myself and that they have been considering something like that for a while and definitely wanted to talk about it.
All in all, I'm confident. I'll let you know. *does the happy dance*
