    Congratulations and good luck! I'm sure you will do great! But I totally understand, I'm the same way. I let my nerves and anxiety get the best of me. (((hugs)))

    Had my interview. Postition was filled but I was told they had another opening at a location closer to me. So I need to fill out that application. And my resume will be forwarded to the manager of that location. So fingers crossed I get called back for second interview.

    That would be better that it's closer! Good luck!

    So they interview you, even with the position already been filled? That is actually good news. They probably had someone internal to fill the position. GOOD LUCK!

    it's weird to me they would interview you if the position was already filled but the fact they told you about the other position sounds promising - bonus that it's closer - i hope this works out for you and congrats on making it through the interview, hope it wasn't as bad as you were possibly imagining

    Great news, glad to hear you're still in consideration (and for a more proximate location). Wishing you lots of luck!

    That's awesome that they have something even closer to home! Glad you survived the first interview and hopefully you'll get the call for the 2nd interview soon! :agree

    I've had jobs pulled for similar reasons at times, not often luckily during/after interviews. It's usually if its taking an unusually long time then I know something is up.

    That's awesome that there's another opening and that it's closer. I'm praying you get the position that's just right for you!

    Still praying for you! Mistakes on the vaccines are a big deal! A local pharmacy gave an 11 year old the adult dose of C19 and she was sooo sick and hospitalized.

    I did not get the position. It's ok tho. I am fine with it but slightly disappointed. Still looking elsewhere. Thanks for all the kind wishes. They were much appreciated!

    It's so hard to get a no, but I always believe that means that there was something about that position that was apparent that wouldn't have been good for you. I'll continue to pray for you!!!!

    Hugs, I totally know that feeling all too well. In my experience the first few rejections can really sting but it does get easier over time.

    Ah bummer. Maybe this was just the practice run that got you on the path towards having the confidence to search for that perfect new job.
