My 12th interview went peachy.. it was on the 9th of February of 2012.... it was a temporary position that was loaned by the town to help put all of their files onto their internet database. Which was perfect for me, since one of the jobs I do at my volunteer job is scan documents onto the online database. My volunteer supervisor had heard about this job and told me about it.
I did research on this company, and I wasn't able to find much about it. I did however know that the supervisor at this place was named Tammy; the same name as one of the co workers I had worked with when I worked at the mail room. One of the ladies at my volunteer job had said maybe that it was a sign, that I would get this job because her name was Tammy. (Which proved to be wrong.)
Fortunately, my father was able to drive me and we got there early. The building was a big square and I wasn't sure where to go, as there was another door.
When I entered the room, it was a very big room... right in the beginning of the door. There were people all around my age sitting at a table doing something, it kind of looked like a sweat shop almost.. XD
I met with the interview lady, all went well.. I think. My only problem was that I wasn't feeling very well, so I was afraid she'd pick that up.
She seemed nice, the picture I had found on her linked-in profile made her look like a scary old hag, but she was most likely in her 30's and was not scary at all.
Overall, I think the interview went very well. Tammy had mentioned that it gets pretty dull, and that the other workers usually bring their MP3 players. (Which I've never owned, but ever since this interview... I want one now. XD)
I said Adieu, and was on my merry way. (Did this just become a Christmas book?! XD)
I thought I did well on the interview, and I really thought I had obtained the position.
After the interview, I was afraid that If I had obtained the position... that I would have felt empty and would have found the job boring.
I got an email a week later saying I didn't get the job, but that my resume would be on file.
Good thing was, it would have been killer on bus! I would have had to walk 20-30 minutes every day from the bus stop.
Lesson Learned: All because you think you got it, doesn't mean you did.
After this interview, I actually didn't have another interview for two months. The next interview I had was actually the same day I created this blog.
