    There are some very good suggestions posted here. I really can't add any more to it, but to encourage you to feel your competance. After your preparation, take heart in how well you know you can handle the job for which you are applying. Once you accept that you are the person for the job, you will project it to others. What does Oprah say about luck....it's when preparation meets opportunity....and you've got a handle on both aspects. Still, I can't resist in saying, Good Luck!

    Thanks for all of the great advice and well wishes everyone!

    I'm starting to feel better and more prepared about the situation. I really feel like I deserve this promotion and I know I need to keep that mentality if I want to be promoted.

    Now I just have to keep preparing and wait until Friday. The hardest part is going to be waiting to find out if I got it or not!

    That is exciting! I wish you the best of luck. I just changed jobs (again) and know how nervous the interview process is. I'm sure you'll do really well, though! Keep us updated!

    Tomorrow is the big day! I'm getting really nervous now! I feel like I'm as prepared as I'll ever be and I'm ready to just get it over with. I found out that there are 9 people interviewing for 3 spots so hopefully I'm able to snag one of them! I'll let you all know how the interview goes.

    It's finally over! I feel really great about the interview. Even if I end up not going it at least I know that I did the best I could, I can't imagine what I could have done to make the interview better. Now I just have to sit and wait!

    I'm glad you feel so pleased that it went well. It's nice to come out knowing that you gave it your best shot. Sometimes luck, good or bad, plays a part, but if you gave it your best, well, you can't do any more than that.

    How long do we have to wait for the result?

    I just recieved a phone call from the district manager. She said that my interview went really well and I did a great job. Out of the 9 people that interviewed it was between me and one other person. She said that she ended up going with the other person because they had experience in an area that I didn't and it's something that is necesarry for the location that had the opening. I'm a little upset especially because I know that I learn quickly.

    However there is some good news. They are going to start my background check because they have two positions that will be opening up soon. I am in what is considered the "ready" position so as soon as a spot opens up I will be promoted. She said that at the latest I should be promoted by May. They do want to transfer me to another store in the meantime so that I can get the experience that I was lacking.

    While I am upset that I didn't get promoted right now, I have to look at the bright side. I really didn't like the store in which the position was avaliable. However the two spots that are opening up are both at stores that I would love to work at. So it might be worth the extra couple of months to be at a store where I will be happier.

    This is it! This is what it's all about, good for you! I love that you see a bright side. And, not just a "well, it's better than nothing" bright side...this is a PERFECT bright side! It sounds like it's meant to be...May will be here before you know it! Sounds to me like you got the better end of the deal, anyway! Soo...I say congratulations!

    Think of it like this, you have a few more months before true personnel headaches start!

    It isn't IF, it is WHEN. Hang in there.

    So in this interview they got to see how ready you are for a promotion - which might turn out of be a dream! AND they will even help you get the experience that you happened to lack in.

    Sounds like a pretty good employer to me! Way to go!
