Waiting Game. Continued.

After many messages left and e-mails sent, I finally connected with the HR Recruiter for CC today. At 11am, she called to chat about opportunities with the company. She narrowed my choices down to two entry-level jobs:

Training Coordinator
Merchandise Specialist

Both of which are appealing for their own reasons. She set up a time for me with the Training Manager at 3pm today. I didn't know this was a phone interview, thought it was to talk about the position like I briefly did this morning. Well, turns out the phone interview went very well. She was also a RA like myself and asked me questions that of course I knew the answers too. So, onto the position.

The Training Coordinator is brand new, I would be the first person in this position (I tend to be the first ones with jobs it seems...) and develop the job into what I want it to be, with some but not all flexibility. As described by the Training Manager, I'd be the hub or the training department. Lasting 50 minutes, and with one of the Field Specialists jumping into the interview at the end, I was very pleased with how it went. I was complemented on my event planning skills, asked about my conflict resolution tactics, and acknowledged for my Professional Writing minor.

Now, the waiting game begins all over. This time though, it's a bit more important than will I be a Charmer or not. This time, it's will I be THE Training Coordinator or not. If not, I still can apply for the Merchandise Specialist position, however, I've got my fingers crossed that I won't have to do that.

With the anticipation building, I have begun the apartment search. I found out there is a Metro system, both rail and bus, that navigates throughout Houston. And the Zoo is only 10 minutes from work. There's a bagel shop 4 miles from work, and apartments everywhere. Can't wait to make this all official. Hopefully, sooner rather than later.

Thanks CC, for opening the doors to Corporate. Goal of being there before my birthday: looking good. Oh, and wanna know what I'll be doing for my 23rd birthday? Taking a dolphin cruise in the Gulf of Mexico that leaves from Galveston. Yep. Now that's the good life.
