Well, today was a pretty good day again! I had my 2 job interviews. I think the one went really well. The other I'm not to sure.
I walked into the room and they were friendly enough. They started telling me about the position and the duties, pay, benefits, etc. Then they asked me if I had any questions for them. I didn't really. I mean they had just told me everything and more. So I started to tell them about myself. I just said why I should get the job. What makes me a good candidate. I really really! really! want this job. It doesn't pay much more than my old one. The work just seems really great. Things I wanted to get into but never have. So I'm hoping that the interview went well as they really didn't seem to want to ask me anything. So I don't know if their minds were already made up.. and they were just going through the motions. Or if they knew that they were going to hire me. They also told me and this is another reason why I kinda got thrown off. . . The one person (branch manager) said that they should know by the end of the day. Then the girl that I would be replacing said immediatly after that they should call between Christmas and New Years and that either way I would be getting a call. So I think she didn't like me. It's such a disadvantage to be young. I was speaking to my friend today and she told me that it makes more sense for a company to be hiring younger employees, for the general reason that they are more flexible. Older people can be set in there ways and there's always going to be an issue if the superior is younger than them. I don't know I think I've made my mistakes in the past and it is going to take a while to repair them. I guess we are all in this life business for the long haul. What can I do? Just gotta roll with it.
