The job search has ended!

Last Wednesday I got an interview with the doctors of the urology department at the Clinic, and I was really excited about it. It's a faced paced clinic because there are only 2 urologists in the Corvallis area and they are both in one office. I'd be assisting with in-office procedures and have a list of patients that require nurse-only care (rather than care from a medical assistant). I'd be busy, but I like busy. And I have a normal work schedule; Monday through Friday, eight to five. Weekends off! I thought the interview went well, but was told they were still interviewing other applicants and I would hear back after they were all done.

After a brutal week of waiting (a week is a long time for someone who isn't very good at being patient), I got a call yesterday. But it wasn't a job offer. It was a call for another interview in a different department. I was still excited about having another interview, but I really wanted it to be a job offer. Really really.

This would have been my 5th interview with the clinic and I was running out of professional outfits, and I didn't want to let them see me in the same outfit twice so I headed down to my favorite shop (Second Glance). In the middle of shopping, I get yet another phone call. This time it is the job offer!! I GOT A JOB!! :) I get to stay in Corvallis, and I get to start looking for my own car (sharing with my brother has been a little hard for me), and I have a job!! I get to go take a drug test today and after they are done with my background check, they'll call me and tell me when I start. I am so excited!

Oh, and my other interview was canceled and I saved money because I didn't have to buy a whole new outfit. Good day! :)
