I spent 8 hours interviewing today, being grilled left right and center, having to give impromptu presentations and go through round after round of testing.
Out of hundreds of applicants, I was a finalist.
My last interview was with a consultant whose job it is to add a valued and considered business and cultural opinion to the interviewing. And she told me as I left that she's going to recommend to the three other managers that they send me an offer letter next week. She said me and my experience were perfect fits.
I walked down the steps of the building feeling like fucking Rocky Marciano.
I feel like I stuck up for myself today.
Even if it doesn't come with an offer - which I truly hope it will - I fought for my career and my worth today, and I can't tell you how that feels.
