I Am Working Right Now - As...

A personal story in the experience: I Have a Job
I am working right now - as a temp - but have been offered a formal interview for a permanent position with this company!  I'm very excited about this and have been studying behavioral interview questions with a friend here from EP... my gratitude goes out to him.  He's been great!

I am hoping to get this job because it will be a good way for me to leave my husband and get out on my own with my girls.  Please say a little prayer for me.... my interview is Wed. Nov 14.....Thanks in advance!

How did the interview go?

It didn't Public.... I had the interview - aced it really - thanks to Mr. Optimistic. He helped me nightly studying for the behavioral questions.... and it really did help!

However, due to politics, and a 20 year old, who had a nameplate from the start, I didn't get the job....

I will post a story regarding the whole issue....... so watch for it....

Thank-you all!!! I am a little down about it, but I will bounce back... I am always looking for work and just want a place to be happy - do my job - do it well - and get paid well for a job well done.... it's all I am asking for yet, it seems to elude me continuously.....

Sorry you didn't get the job, and in my time I'm getting ready for retirement, my job will be opened.

Actually Writes, it has indeed been a journey! I have FINALLY landed the job with my dream company and am extremely happy!

I have been there over a year, 4 months as a temp, then I got on with a 1 year contract, which allowed me benefits, and just recently, Oct 1, I got on permanent!

I'm so happy and grateful for the opportunity of this position.

I now have a great job, amazing pay, awesome benefits, and a terrific team of people to work with! So, in the end, yes, everything has gone well... :-)

Thank-you for all your comments and prayers! See? It all works!
