I've got an interview!

Tink · 02-22-2008, 09:37 PM

We have yet to firm up a specific time, but I got an email tonight asking if I'd be interested and available on Wednesday to interview for one of the support staff positions at the court house! I was told the job would involve having an office in the dept of social services and working with a contracted group that provides home health care services for the county. Since I've done home health care, emergency medicine, and was a nurses aide in a nursing home for 3 yrs besides all my office experience, it's a job I think I could really relate to and enjoy.

So please cross your fingers and offer up a prayer that the interview goes well for me. I'm actually rather excited about it right now.

I saw an ad for a local bank looking for a teller supervisor (which is what my last job was) and offering almost $3.60 MORE per hr than the support position pays and it just made my blood run cold to even think of applying for it. LOL So obviously this is about something other than money.

How exciting Tink!!! I will keep my fingers crossed for you.

You really are an inspiration to me to try new things. I've been thinking for a few days now to try and find something different than bus driving. The kids are starting to get to me...so maybe I'll start another thread.

Let us know as soon as you hear anything.

Good luck Tink!!! Will keep fingers crossed for you!!!

(So many fingers crossed for ladies on here, I'm getting all twisted up. LOL)

Sounds like the perfect job for you!!!!

DianaB · 02-23-2008, 07:57 AM

Good luck, Tink! Your a very talented woman and I'm sure that your past experiences make you very qualified for the job!!!!!

judy · 02-23-2008, 09:05 AM

Good luck Tink! I'm really happy for you. You're sure to get it, and it sounds like a
really interesting job where you can do a lot of good for other people.

Tink · 02-23-2008, 09:05 AM

Thanks Ladies! I can always count on your to be here for me with your friendship and support. What a blessing you all are!

Janet, I know I don't have the patience to handle that many kids in a day. I'm amazed at anyone who does. If you feel it's time for a change, I say go for it! Change can be refreshing and open up so many new ideas and people into our lives!

Gina · 02-23-2008, 01:37 PM

Hey Tink, Good luck to you!! I will keep you in my prayers and getting these fingers crossed, toes and hands if that helps...lol

It will be an interesting job working for the court house. I have worked for the court system back in the day before hubby and children. It was exciting...

GOOD LUCK!

Tink · 02-23-2008, 05:17 PM

I got another email agreeing that I really do need to fill out and bring in an application on hard copy, so printed one out and filled it in today. Since the job deals with a lot of confidential info they have several releases for background checks and screening that I had to sign. My record is squeaky clean thank God so at least I'm not worried about that part.

Good Luck!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Janet · 02-24-2008, 05:05 AM

Has a time been set for the interview yet?

Tink · 02-24-2008, 10:22 AM

Thanks for asking Janet.
No time set yet. I hope she will tell me on Monday when I drop off the hard copy of the application. I don't think she works weekends... so must have been putting in some overtime when she emailed me.

I just really hope I get the chance to try the job.

Emmsmom · 02-24-2008, 11:10 AM

Good Luck! I am sure you won't have any problem at all!You have always been good at what you do no matter what it is.

DianaB · 02-24-2008, 06:23 PM

Fingers are crossed!!!

Janet · 02-25-2008, 08:57 AM
