New plan

I was able to get an interview this upcoming Monday! It's an admin job, but the employer sounds very open to having me help with social media and video for the company as well. I'm very excited and I hope I can ace the interview.

The phone interview was on Thursday, and was pretty interesting. Basically the interviewer started off by asking me what my schedule was like and why I was open to a PT position. Then they asked about my admin experience and said I matched 70% of what they were looking for. Afterwards, I was advised they would be sending an email by the end of the day to let candidates know if they made it to the next round of face-to-face interviews. I then asked my question and then the interviewer was scrolling through my resume and asked me about my social media experience, then they noticed my video editing experience as well. Then they admitted they went on a tangent and that this talk could be saved for an in-person interview if I was selected... then instantly, the interviewer changed their mind and just scheduled me right then for an in-person interview this Monday! I'm pretty excited because the company is really interesting and I'm happy they found my other skills valuable to them. I'll have to emphasize them for sure when they ask why I should be hired.

I need to practice more for my interview. I'm going to wake up early tomorrow (today) and the day of and do a rehearsal. I need to remember some stories to tell and be as positive as I can be and myself!

I also need to iron my clothes and shine my shoes. Hopefully the weather will be good too!

My new plan is to first, get a job so I can be financially secure again and build my experience. I'm then going to start building my portfolio in web design, graphic design, social media and video production as much as I can on a part time basis. Then take that experience and apply that to work!

I really hope I can get a new job before the end of the month. I know I can, I know I can! :D
