Teady Bear, best of luck to you getting this job--a second interview is certainly a good sign.:)

Missilhouette, knock 'em dead in your interview, and best of luck to you as well.

My online teaching application is coming along...still many hoops to jump through, still have to take a month-long training course. But I need this...I really really need this.

Best wishes to all the applicants! Remember, figure out what work your potential employer needs done, and then go out and show them how YOU are the one to do it for them! pic

Wow thanks for all the well wishing! The interview was yesterday and it lasted an extremely long time because of testing. But at the end of my interview they told me I'll get a call next week to discuss salary! So it looks like I'm in!!

Thanks to everyone for the good mojo! :)

Great Missilhouette!

Good going Oregonfire!

Well, my interview lasted all of 5 minutes. He said that the lady I interviewed with on Saturday really wants me and that OK with him. He said they would discuss it and call me either this afternoon or Monday morning, because they want me on March 4th and I would need to put in 2 weeks notice at my present job.

I am not sure about the salary either, they know what I make now so hopefully they will increase it (and hopefully will pay for my school!)

I want to thank all yall for your support as well!! Knowing all yall were supporting me I know helped boost my confidence in the interview!

Hello all--yes, the online application process is going well. Specifically I'd be teaching English classes online (don't worry I'll actually spell check when I'm getting paid to do so ). The university is even in a different state from me. However, the hiring process goes on for quite some time, including training course. Luckily, the English classes are in high demand.

That sounds great Oregonfire.

My update: I got the job, they let me know this morning w/ an increase of $4000 a year! Very exciting. The only sad part is I probably wont be able to get on these boards at work anymore, and I dont have a computer at home. I will have to invest in one!

I do accounting work. At the job I am at I have done Accounts Payable mostly. My new job will consist of Accounts Payable, Accounts Receivable and Payroll. I am going to school for an Accounting Degree, but have a loooong way to go.

Jen, nope, no word from McLane. Did you ever find a contact name?

Companies here are really bad about follow up. Even when they take the time and effort to interview you, they don't follow up, not even when you call them and bug them! The job service center I work with said they get the same problems!
