Waiting on outcome of interview......

I had an interview last Friday morning which went really well and waiting is killing me..... I havent got any more things to cross either!

Im really hopeful of this one, it will be a better job, a good payrise and plently of training and development (something massively lacking in my current job)...

Ive been shortlisted down to the last two for the last two jobs I interviewed for and lost out at the very end..... This time there are two vacancies to be filled so surely it cant happen again!! :rotfl:

    The last one I had was a 3 hour interview, then almost 2wks of waiting to be told they were unable to separate myself and another candidate and so want to do a second round of interviews.

    Well, slight movement on mine... have round 2 of interviews a week on friday... only problem is that it is probably the job that I want but have other interviews this week and so will probably have other offers on the table

    Thats good news, persevere and I hope you get the one you want! :D

    Im kind of holding off on anything else for the moment until I find out either way about this position, its a good company and every aspect of the job is better than my current one so Im presently driving myself crazy waiting for some news LOL.

    There was just a glut of jobs that came up at the same time that were of interest to me. My problem being "upper middle management" is that I tend to fall between the cracks of routes available to people in volume or middle management jobs and those for senior management.

    Lacking self confidence I didnt think I would get any of them so went for the blunderbuss method but "unfortunately" they have all called me for interview etc.
