Amazing things happened on Thursday of last week! I got two calls from two different school divisions....at the same d@mn time!!!Well technically the calls weren't at the exact same time, but they were like an hour apart from each other! Either way, I called back after work and scheduled two interviews....which also happened to be scheduled on the same day. Yesterday, I had the opportunity to travel down to Richmond for a job interview at an elementary school, then I headed up to Manasass for a county screening interview.
Interview #1
So check these odds out! The school I interviewed at has a new principal and the principal formally worked in the same county that I work in now!! I've actually met this woman several times before when she was still working in my county, so that gave me a bit of a heads up on what to expect and what kind of person she was. I talked it over with my principal and assistant principal before I went on the interview to get their professional opinion regarding any pointers and tips they thought would be beneficial for me. I think I did really well in this interview! I was genuine and I was myself! That's all that I can be, so we'll see how it goes!
Interview #2
I'm truly banking on getting hired with this school division more than the first interview's county. I say this because this county actually has a high school position available. Oh and let me not forget to mention that I #rocked my interview with this particular county! The lady I interviewed with told me she really liked me and that she would definitely pass my name on to schools to contact me for an interview. She did suggest that I possibly take an elementary school position if it became available to get my foot in the door in case I don't get the high school position. I e-mailed the principal at the high school and forwarded my resume and cover letter and also informed her that I just interviewed with the county for a screening. I'm hoping things work out in my favor here because I got some really good vibes with this county!! Prayers up! I'm leaving it in God's hand!
My boss really doesn't want me to leave and she has expressed this to me just about every day since I told her I had interviews scheduled. I love my current school and wish I could pick it up (along with my townhouse) and place it in a more popping city! That would be a perfect world! Ultimately, I did tell my boss that I'm trusting God on all of this and that I have prayed that I am open to going where I'm needed the most! I want to be a vessel and to be where God needs me! If that means staying in Charlottesville for another year or two, I'm ok with that too. Time will tell, but I'm really excited that something is actually starting to look up for me! It's been a long process of applying and waiting, and hoping, and wishing for something to come up and now it's actually happening!
Stay tuned.... :)
