This post has nothing to do with vampires. It's just about interviewing and I couldn't think of a clever title. Anne Rice will be suing me for copyright infringement soon.
Hopefully you enjoyed the post where I was high on prescription drugs (that have all been prescribed to me and that I am allowed to take in the quantity that I took them in). I didn't correct any of the errors that I found the next day, just for you. I also can't quite believe that I felt the need to write about breast feeding, but again, I decided to leave it.
I had my first phone interview today. This one was for a retirement plan education specialist position, which is a job that I'm not really sure that I want. There would be a lot of travel (80% some weeks) and I'm just not sure. I also decided today that I really don't like phone interviews. I need feedback so I know if I've fully answered a question or if I need to go on. I felt today like I should have elaborated more on a couple of things. I also still feel like I have a really bad answer when they ask me about losing my job at BCFG. I have another phone interview tomorrow for another position that I'm not too keen about, but I'm not in the position to turn anything down right now. After that interview I will have exhausted all my interviews and need to send out another zillion resumes to generate more activity. I'm starting to feel like I'm not going to find the right thing.
I feel like I should write something about vampires now. If I was feeling more creative I would come up with something fun. I will have to think about that for next time.
Don't worry. Anne Rice and I are Facebook friends, and she would never turn down the opportunity for free publicity. For instance, she has a new book out, the Wolf Gift. I want to read it. Then again, I own everything she has ever done except the Jesus thing. :)
ReplyDeleteOh, and she is In Love with Matt Boemer from USA's White Collar, and for that, I love her a little more. And she said if they ever did an Interview with a Vampire reboot, she'd want him to play Louis. Not sure if they should ever remake that movie. It wasn't as good as the book, but I feel it was as good as we could have expected.
Ok, I'm done with my Anne Rice love fest. I hope your interviews produce high-paying, low work jobs!!! ;)
