Happy Friday!

Who likes to rock the party? I like to rock the party!
OK, I’m a bit giddy right now because I just had a rockin’ good interview for a job that I REALLY want. At one point, I told the recruiter that she was making me drool, that’s how much I like the idea of this job. And you know what? It’s nothing I would have ever seen myself doing before, nothing I had ever thought about, and I have no real-life experience in it. So what? I’m totally qualified for the job, and I would go out and make it my OWN. I’m excited by the idea of what they want me to do. When was the last time I’ve felt that way about a job? Probably never.
The interview went well, and I now have an interview next week with the actual people who make the decisions, rather than a recruiter. Yay me!
Cross your fingers for me, OK?

Fingers likewise crossed. I think you’ve reached triple digits now, in digits doubled on your behalf.
Years ago I realized how little macro-economic indicators mattered to an individual search — while it’s easy to key on unemployment stats or Wall Street metrics, hat really matters is what one brings to the dance. Good luck!

I won’t ask you to say here what the job is (though I don’t promise I won’t email you about it :-), but I would love to know how you found out the job even existed. Online search?

Linda, if I get the job (or maybe even if I don’t), all will be revealed. Once I get the job (or don’t), I’ll tell my story. But mostly I don’t write about work, so once I tell where and why, that’s probably the last anyone will hear of it. 🙂

Oh, this makes me really happy. All the best!
