!!!The hunt is over, I have a job. What a relief!!! I felt amazing for about one hour....then the clock started ticking and I realized I had one week to get a car, find a place to live, pack up all of my stuff, get a drug test, finish my freelance project, mentally prepare, and sign my life over to Indianapolis, Indiana.
Even after this amazing success, I still have no idea what it is that appeals to employers. What I did notice with this job is that it felt right. The interview went smooth as butter, I felt comfortable talking with the employees, and most of all I felt I could be a part of their team. When I drove away from my second interview, my stomach dropped, I really wanted it. This was not just a job that would pay the bills or that I would stay at for one year and move on, this was THEE job, thee job I had dreamed about and it fit like a glove.
It was a long haul, exhausting, and brutal...but it showed me how valuable a job like this is. I believe that all of my searching will help my work ethic and my drive. So in the end my only advice is to keep applying, try to relax, and be persistent.
It might be a busy week, month, or couple of months, but a new blog title is in order, maybe something like "The New Worker...." or "In the first year...".....we will see.
