I thought that I'd find out on Monday whether or not I got the job I recently interviewed for, but the official news did not come until Wednesday. The bad news is, I didn't get the job I interviewed for, but there is good news too.
My company is going to be rolling out a new position to 25 major markets over the next couple of months and Minneapolis is one of those markets. There will be five positions filled in Minneapolis and to begin with they will only be hiring from the current Inside Sales group. The panel members for the Field Sales position I interviewed for will also be involved in hiring for this other new position. During my interview they asked me if I had applied for the new positon as well, and I confirmed that I had. When the hiring manager talked to me on Wednesday, he told me that they decided to hire an external candidate that has over 20 years of Field Sales experience. I can certainly understand that decision. He also told me that the four panel members had made a formal recommendation that I be hired for the new position. Great! If I had gotten the Field Sales position, then Justin and I would have had to move before little Via comes and that would have been a bit crazy to say the least. Regarding the new position, it's not a done deal, but I remain confident that God has a plan. It appears that we will be moving to MN before the end of the year, but after we welcome Via into the world. I'm excited about how it will all play out.
In other news, Justin and I are headed to Jamaica in less than three weeks to celebrate the wedding of our friends Jack and Stephanie! I'm so excited to have some time away with Justin. We are staying at Sandals resort in Montego Bay and I may or may not check out the website about every other day. We haven't been on a real vacation since our honeymoon and we are both absolutely pumped.
I'm working on some crochet projects, and next week I'll post some finished products.
Peace!
