Another Interview Update
Yesterday, I had an interview at the place that I applied on a whim before we left for CA. They contacted me that they wanted me to do a writing test a few days after we got back from CA. Apparently I scored really high on the test ,so I was invited to interview yesterday. I think they will make me an offer, but that may not be a good thing....
The interview was fine. it was long (about 3 hours) but they didn't really ask me many questions. Mostly they talked about the job(s)...I was actually interviewing for 2 different positions at the same time. I did have to take a 10 minute "attention to detail test". Basically, I had to look at lists of numbers or letters and say if list a was the same or different than list b.
I have a few major concerns about this job. First, the company seems like it's extremely micromanaged. Everything you do has to go to your quality control partner and then to a quality control supervisor. The QC comments that you get are reviewed periodically by your boss and you get in trouble if you make too many mistakes. This worries me, not because I make a lot of mistakes, but because what happens if your QC partner is an ass and continually gives you bad QC comments...it just seems like you're so open to sabotage. Second, there's a 90 day probation/training period and it sounds really terrible. I had visions of myself coming home in tears every night! Finally, the jobs seem boring. The one job is a lot of glorified paper pushing, the other job is less paper pushing but still seems boring.
So...I would take this job if I'm not offered the one that I interviewed for last week, but I wouldn't be happy about it. The job that I interviewed for last week is my dream job! The one this week would be a job that would pay me, but also make me miserable. My fingers are crossed so hard that I get the dream job and don't have to take the misery job! I also hope that dream job makes a decision soon (they're interviewing the final candidate on Fri) because I think misery job wants to move quickly. I can't say no to misery job until I know for sure that I got dream job.
Thanks for all of the positive vibes and good thoughts that all of you have been sending my way lately. I appreciate it more than you know!
