lady_of_clunnSo, I've had a job interview last week, for a vacancy inside the company I already work for. I had not planned on applying, because I thought they are looking for someone who had been with the company for much longer.
My team leader 'strongly suggested' that I apply, as it shows interest and commitment and so on and so on.
Today I was called to the conference room and I was getting ready for a gentle let-down and a nice training course in London for my effort of applying.
And now I got the job.
Still dazed.
Um, yay?

Ich hatte letzte Woche ein Vorstellungsgespraech fuer eine Stelle in der Firma fuer die ich bereits arbeite. Ich hatte eigentlich nicht vor, mich zu bewerben, weil ich dachte, dass jemand gesucht wird, der viel, viel laenger bei der Firma ist.
Mein Abteilungsleiter hat mir dann 'nahegelegt' mich zu bewerben, da das Interesse zeigt und so.
Heute wurde ich dann in den Konferenzraum gebeten und ich hatte mich auf eine nette Absage und eine Weiterbildung in London vorbereitet, als Belohnung fuer meine Muehe.
Jetzt habe ich den Job.
Bin noch ganz wuschig.
Aeh, juhu?

Date: 2009-06-17 05:41 pm (UTC)I will start on 1st of July in the customer service team: refunds, complaint management, building relationships with customers, 'challenging issues', probably also some traveling.
It's probably more stressful, a lot more responsibility and dealing with *cough* people who think they are really important. Problem is, they actually are...
Did I just forget to say thank you? *hides face in hands*
Thank you! :)
Money is better, though :)

Date: 2009-06-18 04:19 am (UTC)You know, I was promoted about a year ago to a more stressful job, and yes it was more money. One good thing about it also though was, I think it's more interesting. I never think my job is boring now. Sometimes maybe that's not so good. Yet I used to be bored to death, I was pulling my hair out. So sometimes, challenging and stressful can be a good thing, seriously.
