My second interview was actually a not for profit job, where I didn't get paid a cent! But the experience was memorable and I'll never forget being there...
I also did look for paying jobs while I was there.
I had this interview on May 17th of 2011.
I actually had to take two buses, which took a total of 2 and a half hours to get to! I had to get up at 6 am just to get there at 9 am.
Although, in the long run. This job actually helped me understand the area, I learned about numerous towns as well as how to get to certain places.
When I actually got to the place for the interview, I was actually really afraid. As I have a fear of getting lost, and this place was HUGE! Plus, I didn't know exactly where I was going. Fortunately, there was a woman who got off the bus with me that knew where I was supposed to go.
When I got to the right room, I actually had a nice experience. The supervisor was very nice and welcoming, and I didn't really have to say anything. Not for profit jobs tend to be easier to get, they'll take you as long as you aren't crazy (in a bad way), or on drugs, alcohol etc... As long as you're level headed and not a psycho.
I worked at the mail room for 4 months, I was let go for unknown reason. But the last day I was there, we all had completed the work. There was literally no work left! So, since then... I've told people I was let go due to lack of work. Even though I truthfully do not know why they let me go.
Although it was a short time being there, I learned a whole lot about nearby area's, I learned about how having a job was, I made friends, I learned that there are lot's of attractive people in giant government buildings :3 and most importantly... I bought a kind of iced tea at their cafe that was so awful... that I can't drink iced tea anymore, or it reminds me of that nasty stuff.. :(
Lesson Learned: It made me understand the workforce, I understood more how having a job was.
