The Waiting Begins

I applied for a job as a Tobacco Compliance Specialist. The job posting said that it was a temporary job, so I was thinking that I could do it as a parttime type of position. I never thought I would get an interview, but I did which was today.

Because I was thinking this was a part time, temporary position, I didn't prepare at all.

Boy, was that a mistake. I went into the interview room and there were 3 people interviewing me. WOW, this was a serious job. After hearing all about the job, I realized that I should have prepared.  The job is full time, but they hire the person as a self-employed contractor, so no benefits, but with the 40 hour work week and the fact that it's a federal job, the pay is GREAT!!

The women told me that the interviewees are scored based on the answers to the questions. That should have given me a hint at how I was to answer the questions, but I didn't pay any attention. I answered all of the questions, but not all of them completely. I think there were two questions where I didn't fully answer the questions.  Dag, after leaving, I was in the car and I remembered so much that I could have said.  Aw man.....

She said it takes 4-6 weeks to get a response. I REALLY want this job becaue it would be such a financial boost!!  But, I have to either wait for her call or wait for a rejection letter in the mail.  Oh boy....

Happy waiting!!
