Always before, I've had to wait months between jobs before I ever found a good lead that lead to an actual interview.
I have never gone on a job interview and not gotten the job.
Five years ago, when my husband started his current job, one of his first clients was Mr. V, a very wealthy man. I wished he had a family so I could be his nanny. Some time after that, Mr. V got married. I wished they would have a baby so I could be their nanny. Years later, I lost my job a week before Christmas. My husband tells me he knows of a family that is looking for a nanny; a very well-off family that is on vacation until after Christmas. I thought nothing else of it. A few days later, I ask who was hiring. To my shock and surprise, it is Mr. and Mrs. V, who seem to have a bouncing baby boy now.
This afternoon, the day after Christmas, my husband called me. Mr. V would like me to come interview tonight at 7:30. Then he would like me to watch the baby a couple nights this week, paid, to see if we all get along. Call first to make sure Mrs. V is home from work. Oh, and bring my resume. Resume? Hmm...haven't needed one of those in a few years. A few stressful hours later, I have a pretty good-looking resume and am counting down the minutes to a job interview.
I have never gone on a job interview and not gotten the job. Never. Must stop worrying...
