I think I was being interviewed

I had the second interview today. I'm not sure if I will get the job or not(over qualified for one, under qualified for the other is my take) but it was one hell of an interview. I learned a lot about what this field is about, what the stressors are, what the rewards are. I also learned a lot about my interviewer...

She has been married to her husband for over 30 years. She has been the single provider for her house of 5 for the past two years (her husband was injured at work). Her husband once cheated on her and she shook the woman's hand, 6 years later he tried to kill that woman and went to prison. The interviewer stuck by her husband while he was in prison, about 2 years I think.

I don't know what to think about all of this. I am not real sure why she told me these things. I hope I got my points across about the job and why I wanted it. I better make a call on Monday just to make sure she understands that I want the job and what my strong suits are.

I guess if nothing else, it comes through that I am a good listener.

  1. My God! Did she tell you what kind of underwear she had on? I'm a big believer in a person not being afraid to talk about the downs in their life; but there is a right and wrong place for that. And this was all wrong.
