Fingers Crossed!

Keep your fingers crossed for me! I had two interviews today. The first one went really well, and the company says that they are very interested in hiring me. We'll see what comes of that. The second interview, which is for the job that I actually want out of the two, went so well that before I even left the room I was asked back for a second interview! My recruitment agent Jane rang me to say that the interviewer was totally impressed with me and thinks that I'd be perfect for one of the roles she was considering me for. I'm so excited! The benefits package is brilliant.

Between interviews Jane rang me to say that one of the law firms she had passed my details to for a legal secretary position actually wants me to come in for an interview for a paralegal position! Wow, that would be great! I really do like the firm I interviewed with today though, but I'll go see what they have to say.

The day wasn't perfect though. I was late to the first interview because of traffic (only by about five minutes though), and when I went round a roundabout the sat nav I borrowed from my ex-husband came unstuck, flew off the window and cracked the screen. I've now used a chunk of my savings to replace it, which I didn't need right now. Still, I was considering buying one since I'll have a new city to learn to get around, and the broken one can be fixed so I'll just have it for myself.

Now it really does look like just a matter of finding a place to live because a job will come sooner rather than later. We called into a letting agent's office today, and that was a bit of a laugh. She doesn't have any three bedroom houses or flats, but she does have a two bedroom penthouse she says is a bargain! From a council house in Chesterfield to a penthouse flat? I think that would be culture shock of the highest degree!
