Had a phone interview yesterday morning with the Indiana Small Business Administration. I was a wreck. Simba was meowing outside my bedroom door (acting like something sinister was after him) and distracting the hell out of me. I felt weird talking to a panel of women who I could not see or judge the looks on their faces. I apologized if I came out nervous (at the end of the interview) but they said I did just fine. BTW I hate interviews. Detest them with the same reverence I have for worms. I don't like to sit in front of someone and do a song and tap dance as to why I should be hired. My resume speaks for itself. Not to be cocky but just how it is. I have an excellent educational background, served in the military since I was 17, worked for NARA for over five and a half years. HIRE ME!
The final determination comes out of D.C., not the ladies. Same as with any federal job. Now I have to patiently wait until June for the results. If I don't get the job there are some higher GS positions here at NARA I am going to submit for.
