Good luck, second interviews are usually a god sign that they really like you. I had one yesterday and got a job offer today. Less money than I expected but something to work with. I haven't accepted yet but I will. I did send some questions back about the offer to get the value of the offer.

What are you going to be doing?

What are you going to be doing?

Converting legacy data from an old system into Salesforce. Then supporting Salesforce.

What is Salesforce?

It's an enterprise (CRM) software system.

Edit: CRM = Customer Relationship Management.

Sounds like a tag team or a stable.

I sent the e-mail, without sounding like I just copied a template. Thanked them for speaking with me again and saying how confident I was I could do the job at a high level.

Also, that Vickie Guerrero was fat and women are only things you hit when a man isn't around. I expect to be made partner.

I bet there was someone off camera yelling, "BE CAY-FUH OWN MY SEA BRUNG BITCH!"

The 2nd meeting was with the accountant, not the boss. Seeing as how I am a Bookkeeper, private meetings with the accountant are kind of required. He said they are going to take a few days to look at everyone and let me know by the end of the week.

This was Wednesday and I didn't get a call or e-mail yet. Normally, this would be a definite no hire, but it was the accountant saying it and not the boss. Plus, they honestly didn't strike me as the type of place that wouldn't even send an e-mail to let you know they hired someone else.

When should I completely give up hope? For the job that is, I gave up hope on life a long time ago.

Give it one week before thinking it is a no go. There could be other interviews that happened after yours and they could have issues getting together to discuss who to hire and putting together a proposal.

BobbyR · « **Reply #37 on:** January 19, 2013, 08:43:25 AM »

and if you don't hear in a week by all means, choose arson

Okay, that makes me put down the can of gasoline. Of course, it just gives me more time to prepare. They are right next to a movie theater too. I can catch Django as they burn.

FYI - if you listed A1-wrestling.com member on the resume you gave them, you might want to refrain from posts like this for a little while.

Oh fuck, Webweaver is actually working for the same type of companies that I do.

I need to figure out if Dynamics GP has a gang sign...

Hmm, good call. I should probably delete my Facebook too considering it's basically a running diary of me being an asshole. I rarely go a week without mentioning the Holocaust and how they "dropped the ball".

If they see how many beautiful women you have hanging on your every word, they may hire you as a Mistress Coordinator.

I should go for an interview somewhere, then post as a status, "In case my possible employer is Facebook screening me: Pick your favorite three of my female friends. They are as good as yours."

EDGECRUSHER · « **Reply #43 on:** January 21, 2013, 11:40:25 AM »

Those girls decided not to bang me the second I started making rape jokes. Well, most of them. Rape jokes are the best, except for Holocaust jokes.

They haven't called me back yet and I am probably going on another interview tomorrow for a company that seems like they would offer me the job on the spot if I can spell accounting. Can I call up the job and tell them this so they tel me whether they want me or not? Should I e-mail? Should I stop sounding like a desperate girl who got fucked and the guy wants nothing to do with her anymore?

RickRude · « **Reply #45 on:** January 22, 2013, 02:05:37 PM »

Get the offer, first. Tell them you will consider it overnight and let them know the next day. Use that time to tell the other company you have an offer on the table and get a definitive response.

^- Great advice.

EDGECRUSHER · « **Reply #47 on:** January 22, 2013, 02:46:00 PM »

I got the job.

They called the minute before I was about to call the other job and schedule my interview. So, hooray for me.

Thank you for all of the advice.

It's my birthday on Monday too, so I know longer have to hang myself. I will wait for my first check before I buy a bag and listen to Sister Christian in my bathrobe.
