I’m so excited! I had a face-to-face interview with a principal at an elementary school in a neighboring school district to my home. My name and résumé are still in the county-wide job search computer system, and he chose me from the information there. He even agreed to let me interview in the evening when I explained to him that I had just taken a related job and the employers would not look kindly on me taking off for a job interview so soon after I’ve started working for them. I think I had a good interview, and I want to give this a chance to lead to a job closer to what I was seeking in the first place. It’s for a fourth grade position soon to be vacated by an expectant mother, and I would love that! I certainly have more to offer than a recent college graduate, and my good friend, Charlene, works there as a part-time nurse and has promised to put in a good word for me. That’s what really gets you the job in this area: knowing someone on the inside. We’ll have to wait and see what happens, but at least it’s hopeful.
