Interview Update

Thank you to everyone who wished me well and prayed for me today (and ever really). My interview went very well (at least I think so) and I was totally calm and confident, which is crazy considering I haven't had to interview for a job for at least 15 years!


The job was for a receptionist position at a local company, so it would be something I'd be good at; filing, typing, answer phones, directing calls and it would be nearby. But I left the interview feeling like it isn't the job for me. It would be full time 8-5 and year round (as most jobs are) and I really feel like I need to get a job with the school district so I can work school hours and be on the school year's calendar. I have already been applying for various positions in the district (i.e., lunch lady, teaching assistant, library coordinator, human resources, etc.) but haven't even been called for an interview and have been denied for positions twice (including the lunch lady job!).

But after interviewing for a regular job today, I am more convinced than ever that I want/need to work for the district. I emailed someone in the district to see what I could do to better my chances, so tomorrow I am going to physically deliver my resume to the head of Human Resources so that he will have a face (pudgy though it may be) to put with the name. So feel free to wish me well and pray for me again.

**Thoughts??**
