Battelle Interview

Today I had an interview with Battelle. They are a company that does IT contract work on Hill Air Force Base. I was originally introduced to them last fall when my neighbor quit his job there and recommended me as his replacement. I interviewed and did well but not well enough because I didn’t get the job.

A few weeks ago, I noticed that Battelle had an opening for the same position that I had previously interviewed for. I didn’t really have anything to lose so I sent in my resume. Surprise! I got an interview!

I wasn’t really sure how to approach this particular interview since I have already gone through this process with this company. I basically just went in and answered everything to the best of my ability. On a few of the answers, the gentlemen who were interviewing me told me that they liked my answers. That’s good, right?

Job Hunt Update II

A couple of days ago, I got a call from New York regarding the position that I interviewed for months ago with Goldman Sachs. The recruiter said that they still want me but don’t have the approval to hire me yet. Apparently the company had permission to interview for the position, but not to hire anybody. Things are moving at the speed of business (as my friend Carl puts it) and I’m tied up in red tape. The recruiter said that she’s seen this before and if I have the patience to wait it out, the job will be mine. It’s a good opportunity for me so I’ve decided to see what happens. I’ve scaled back on looking for jobs for the time being in hopes of somebody signing the right papers and calling me with good news.
