I vaguely mentioned in my last post about having an assessment at work. This was part of an application process for a Deputy Coach job at work. If I passed the assessment I would then go through to the interview stage. Thankfully I passed! I had my interview on Wednesday, and it was one of the most nerve-wracking things I’ve been through in a while. One of the interviewers told me that I didn’t seem nervous, but I obviously was. I took a cup of water in with me and when I took a sip, my hands were shaking so badly that I thought I’d end up tipping it all over myself!

About 5 minutes before leaving work tonight I was handed a letter telling me that I had got the job! I’m so incredibly happy! I’ve never gotten a job after an interview before. I’ve always gone through employment agencies, but anything that I applied for myself and had to have an interview for, I never got. I always got on well with the interviewers and they seemed to really like me, but then they wouldn’t hire me. So when this interview went well I didn’t really dare to believe that I would actually be successful!

What a great way to start the weekend!
