  • And the job interview went very VERY well-I was there for over an hour however the feedback they gave me was this:

    They feel my sales/customer services experience is exactly what they are looking for, and my personality would fit into the team HOWEVER, they feel perhaps as most of my roles have been customer facing I may get bored easily with a job that is mainly telephione based, which i think is a fair comment tbh. In my defense, I WANT THE JOB!

    lol

    They were very nice German men, upfront, straight to the point which I really appreciate. I think I will get a second interview and need to find a way to convince them that I am the correct person for the role!

    How did the interview go Bun?

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.

    Glad the interview went well Bunny. I'm sure you will be able to persuade them that you're the one they want ;)

    I agree with what you said about cats. We had 2 cats when we had the kids, and never had a minutes trouble with either of them.

    Dogs are another matter completely :rolleyes:

    You could cross your turnips!

    If bunny gets the job then it's all down to Mrs Miggin's pie shop for a party!

    Hi bunny - glad the job interview went well. Now tell me, what is the difference between face to face contact with customers and telephone to telephone contact with a customer. Not a lot really, in my opinion.

    You can talk the hind leg off a donkey and charm the birds out of the trees with your personality... so I don't see a problem, but its not me you need to persuade:rotfl:
