Good morning everyone!

 

Mondays tend to have a bad rep and the mere thought of it makes some people feel a little down ...

It's always the same with every interview....you walk out and think 'Damn, I should have told them about this that or the other'

The positive things are these..

You made the short list

You were offered an interview

(Probably many others who didn't get that far.) So you are obviously the type of person they want.

You are more likely to get a call today, which means you will have another decision to make ie Shall I accept it or not?.

Either way @gmarkj, fingers crossed and I hope it all goes to plan wink

@Glory1 - thank you. Normally I am not that bad, but I kept turning it over in my head on the way home and couldn't stop second guessing what I said. 

 

@Cleoriff - all very true, and similar to what my OH and others have said this morning.

 

@jonsie - don't lose all feeling as you might drop your drink!

 

Well, I had a missed call from the HR lady earlier (walked away from my desk) and by the time I got back it had gone to voicemail which said I have some "good feedback". Immediately I think that means I did well but wasn't successful.

 

I call her back to find out and she asks me how I think it went (and give the same reply as earlier). She replies that the two people in the interview were very impressed at how I came across, with my knowledge and experience and what I would be able to bring to the role.

 

All the while I am thinking, sounds great, where is the but that I can feel coming...

.

Except there isn't one. Her next sentence was that they would like to offer me the job and goes into a headline of the package.

 

So I am currently sat here having to type and retype this as my hands are shaking!

Now comes that period of giving in your notice and the days of worrying and wondering if you are doing the right thing......Fear
