Taking a plunge into the deep end

Posted on April 21st, 2008

Tomorrow I have an interview for a web design job for a company downtown [Chicago.] I haven’t been actively pursuing a job, but I happened to stumble across this company when I was browsing Craigslist. Normally I’m very skeptical of my own skills/talent, so I was hesitant to send them an email with my portfolio and resume.

Pushing aside my insecurities, I went ahead and sent out an email and heard back after the weekend. Needless to say, I had a call on Friday to set up my interview for Monday. I’m nervous for the fact that I really want this job. It’s going to be my highest paying one yet (between $25-27 an hour) and it’d be in a lovely location downtown.

I’m going to try to remain optimistic, but even if I don’t get the job for some odd reason, at least I can say I tried.
