I had a interview yesterday (from 11.30pm to 2.45pm) for a position I really wanted. You know when everything comes together and it just feels right?!
They promised to call us at 5pm (same day) and let us know but it was at 6pm, I was called and told I didn't get it. However Andrew (the Principal) was really lovely and said I was (and I quote) a verrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrry close second and that they had spent the last hour trying to decide between me and the ultimately successful candidate.
He said what swayed it was the amount of PR / Marketing duties required and the lady they went with had more experience in that field. He said I couldn't have improved my application or interview as everything excellent and I was an incredibly strong candidate. He actually was very sweet and made me feel quite good for doing so well, despite of the end result.
I KNOW my job is out there (I did think this might be it) so I am acknowledging the disappointment and just congratulating myself for coming so close. And most of all? I'm keeping the faith.....
