Well I had another interview
Yeah, this one seemed to go really well. I had an interview with a place called Infocision Management Corporation. I was a little leary about it, because its a teleservices industry. But I was applying for a personnel coordinator position so that was ok. Anyway, I went in and luckly was able to fill out everything ahead of time because I was doing this on my lunch hour. Anyway, the people there were really nice. The facilities are cool (a gym on site and they are working on adding a day care if I were to ever need that in the very distant future). Well I went through the interview and once again the lady says ...honestly there are a lot of people applying for this position...apparently personnel is popular...she had already had 4 interviews that morning and had several more scheduled for the day. Anyway, she looked at me and said I really think you'd be better off with this other supervisor postion that we have available as well...if you think you might be interested would you mind talking to this guy over here for a bit about it. So I thought I might as well check it out...so I talked to him for a bit and he seemed really confident that I would be a good match for this position. He explained the concepts of it and even talked a little salary (which wasnt as high as I was hoping but he said there is definate potential for bonuses depending on how my team that I would manage does.) He said he wanted to talk it over with his boss and possibly bring me in for another interview. Well he called me later that same day and we are already planning another interview. The only down side I can see is that I'm going to have to be a "telemarkter" for a full week during the training process...however it isn't much differeent than what I'm doing now so I could pretty much put up with it for a while. Also, once I get past that its mainly managing my team, monitoring their calls and working with them to reach their potential. Another cool thing is that they do a lot of work with non profit organizations like American Cancer Society, Lukemia and Lymphonma society, Salvation Army, Campus Crusade for Christ ...etc...they are some of the people who call and request donations. Also, when those telethons are on tv or they have those christian speakers with the number flashing on the bottom of the screen...some of those calls go into this center...They have what they call a "religious department" I guess and they have even prayed with some of the people on the phone who call in for some of these things.
So we'll see if the second interview actually pulls through and if they like me past that one. They guy I talked to seemed pretty confidenta bout it though and he is the acting call center manager right now. If I get it though I'm going to have to go and buy a pretty much brand new wardrobe...dress at this company for everyone (including the callers) is very professional. So much, in fact that If the women wear pants (which is pretty much all I own)...you have to wear a suit jacket with it...their claim is professional dress at work leads to a professional attitude on the phone.
Ok...enough with my babbling...

That sounds very promising!!! That would be a great way to get more experience....and especially management experience...under your belt, if nothing else! Keep us posted!!!! And I have never heard of a "call center" type place with a dress-code like that. However, there is some merit to that...I believe! But bummer for you! Again, though........could be good for you in the long run!
Hope God's timing and plans become very evident to you soon!!!! Hang in there!
Love ya! Oh...you haven't mentioned a thing about wedding plans! Are those started?!?!?
