Oh boy, I'm nervous. I was called late in the day on Friday (not home, of course) and told to call the Executive Director first thing Monday (today) morning regarding my resume for the receptionist job. It sounded (I could be wrong) as though they want to conduct an interview over the phone--but, again, I could be wrong, they may just be calling to set up an in-person interview.

Anyway, I woke with a pretty bad headache this morning and am not sure that I am "on top of my game" this morning enough to call and make an outstanding impression to this lady.

I've pumped coffee into me hoping to be awake and alert. I have to call her in just about 5 minutes. I'm intimidated that it is actually the Executive Director with whom I will be speaking instead of an office manager or supervisor.

:eek: Oh boy.

Whew, the lady called me back just now. I believe I made a good impression on her and we did a casual interview to see if a more indepth interview was warranted. She said my qualifications and interests are in line with who they are searching for. So, I've got an in-person interview set for Wednesday of this week. Enough time to worry myself sick! ROFL! :04:

Congratulations and good luck!

Don't worry too much, I am sure it will go fine. I would suggest some tips to beat the nerves... but I get nervous when I have sing happy birthday at birthday parties with the other party guest.

!! LOL !! Just in case, eh? Much, much too funny! (I'm laughing my head off and Mojo is now joining in the chorus!!).

Being a raving lunatic isn't so bad ... at least, it hasn't be much of a problem for me ... :18: :eek: :18: ;)
