I think I'm finally getting back to work!
« on: September 26, 2007, 04:00:14 AM »
I have 2 job interviews today guys so wish me luck.  I haven't mentioned anything until now because I've been so back and forth with the job thing as of late trying to find the right one and all.  But I think I've finally found 2 good ones and they just both happened to schedule me for an interview today.  They scheduled me about 2 hours apart thank goodness.  I received a call from the first one early yesterday morning saying they wanted to meet with me at 8:30am.  The one I really think I would rather want still had not called me so I was sort of sweatin' because I was worried this other one would want me to start right away and I wouldn't have a chance to check out the main one I was waiting on.  Then late yesterday afternoon that one called and wants to meet with me today at 10:30am.  I was like, "Heck Yeah!"  So it all worked out perfect.  They both sound like good jobs and definitely a good way to start over again.  Hopefully both will want me and I'll be able to just choose one or the other.  I'll give more details when I know more.  I know it sounds a little crazy but I really don't know much about either company just yet.  Only very little.  That's another reason why I didn't want to say much until now.  Wish me luck fellas.

Good luck! What are they for?

I had 2 interviews last week for an IT company dealing with software, I got the job purely because I was so confident and I looked them in the eyes and I didnt lose my calm.

Lance great to hear this good news bro. My thoughts are with you indeed. Just make sure you are calm and confident during the interview and you will do great.

Use your Slyness to your advantage.

Think of the interviewer naked if you think it may help. >:D

Unless she is REALLY hot, then that might preclude your being able to stand up when required. >:D >:D

Best of luck with the interviews, Lance.   Send the message of confidence and look them straight in the eyes when answering questions ....    

Go get 'em, dude !

Good Luck, buddy

If yer faced with a possible job offer from one, but you still ain't heard from the other....or you have a interview pending or a second interview pending....Don't be afraid to let one or the other know that yer interested but yer in the process of weighing both opportunities to give the most equitable decision.

Just go in and be who you are.  I was only in that situation once in my life..where two different places both wanted me to start immediately....it was tough to weigh it out...but it felt good that two places wanted me and were fighting for me.  I think it all boiled down to who was going to pay me more and which had the better benefits.  Good Luck Bro.....Im sure if you have gotten this far..it wont be long and you will have a new job.
