Hope it's going well, or went well!

well, it worked. I didn't cry or pee my pants.... so, I got that goin' for me.

...

55 mins later, I have a couple pages of notes, the interview was with a peer, one level more experienced than the level I'm interviewing for. He said "I could tell you were nervous, excited at the beginning (since I said exactly that... :/ ); did pretty well" I asked what could be better, and he said knowing the exchange roles by heart, instead of relying on my notes would make a difference. (exchange roles? ad roles?) Also being able to whiteboard the mailflow from outlook-send-outbox-world-inbox would help.

he said he'd pass on his notes to the recruiter, and that's who I'll be hearing from next, either way, in a few days.

It was O-K. I don't think I crushed it. He was nice, polite. Probably nice to work with. He didn't reveal any discernible excitement about talking with me, or the prospect of working with me. None that I could detect anyhow.

.....

*sigh*

another week of fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucking stress.

in other news, I have an application in process at the county, and received a message the other day saying that due to the large number of applicants for the position, processing my application would be delayed. that's great, better than "NO", and better than nothing at all.

I'm gonna take a break. I'm exhausted.

Postscript

thank you, all of you for your support and good wishes, I really appreciate you.

pps. since this is a post, would it really be a postpost instead of a postscript? um, yeah. I should probably go lie down or walk around the block. :p

I've been away for a couple of weeks, sorry I didn't see this before now ... V, I wish you the best. I hope you hear from the last interview. Waiting is hard. Wishing you a good outcome from all of this.
