Job Interview Mood

Wednesday, June 18, 2008

So, I went in today for an interview with a big(ger) hospital here in my area. New River Valley Medical Center is the name of it. I was totally feelin the whole atmosphere of this hospital. I wasn't nervous a bit going into it. Everybody there was helpful an nice. So, I get to the place I need to be...not sure if it was the progressive care unit or another, but you get the picture. I introduced myself to 2 young ladies (RN's) and that took me back a bit lol. Wasn't expecting 2 interviewers. I did so surprisingly well. They were so nice and they weren't at all intimidating. This has been the best interview that I have had EVER. I knew what to say. I didn't stutter TOOOOO much (lol). Medical is what I am supposed to be doing and I knew the answers to their questions. I told them that I had a "passion" for the medical field. I ultimately wanted to be an Xray Tech and they asked about those goals as well. So, 45 minutes later and we are done. I thanked them for the opportunity and shook their hands.

If I don't get this, it will be a bummer but I know now that the interview process gets easier. There is somehting out there for me. I just have to find it. If I have to work 2 jobs and one of them Mcdonalds I will do it so I can get on my feet and on my own. I am not too ashamed or proud.

I want this job badly. It is a "Flex" schedule and 12 hour days/nights (have to look that up in order to understand fully), so I probably would have to work 2 jobs anyways. It's all good. Anything to get out onto my own.

Have any thoughts and prayers to spare?

I'm not sure if this is the same thing, but I've heard of 3 (12s) on, 2 days off, 3 on, 2 days off. Maybe what you're talking about is something different.

I wish you all the best at this hospital, hopefully this is the place for you!

I'll keep this in my prayers! I know what you mean about atmosphere, that makes it or breaks it for me! Maybe follow up with a note to them directly? you could call and ask how to spell there names, and then take it by, a thank you note for the interview, handwritten, and also your number on there in case they have any other questions, and complimenting the environment, them, etc. can't hurt!!!!

keep me posted ~~~

It will all happen the way it is supposed to happen. God gives us what we need not what we want. So don't stress over it. If you are supposed to get the job you will, if you don't there is a reason it wouldn't be right for you. Trust in God's plan for you, just be patient, remember it happens in His time not ours!! Just be proud you did your best!! I'm sure you rocked it!!
