♥ Feels like heaven
Today, I woke up to an email of rejection.
Yesterday, I had 3 interviews. I had one with a law firm and two medical offices. I liked two of them and not so much the other. I was told I will receive notification either end of this week or next. Well, I got the rejection email from the law firm. I was kind of down. I mean, since I will be starting paralegal courses next month, I thought working at a law firm will give me exposure to the field. Later at night, I wrote to the HR guy at MSK to ask for a follow-up.
This morning, he replied saying that he checked my references and was waiting to hear back from the interviewer. And at 4 50pm (Eastern time of course), I received a call from him and he told me I got the RSA position! He said that there are paperwork he had to do before I can come in for a physical and orientation. So I won't get to start until mid-September. Still, I'm really excited and I kept asking him if it was true that I got the job. Me! But he said that I did and even congratulated me. Even now, about 4 hours later, I still can't believe it. The pay is wow too, for that position. So I'm happy. I don't even care if it's a boring job. As long as I can get more experience and money. I need to start paying off the loan soon and get my Apple computer! :)
So that's the good news. Best so far. I just hope I don't jinx it though. I hope the HR guy doesn't call back and say it's a mistake. I mean, he did screw up my interview dates twice so...but still, he has been nice to me all this time...and nice voice too. :)
