Well here I go again.

I applied for another job position. I wasn't sure that I wanted to until Friday night when I saw a friend/co-worker out at our local bar. She has been sending me job postings for any applicable positions that I might be interested in. She asked me if I had put in my transfer for a current clerical job position and I had told her "no", that I had been a little discouraged since the last interview. She said just put in for it, what is the worst that can happen. I advised her that I hate the damn interviewing process and she said just go in there like they are one of you good friends. I am not quite sure what my problem is when it comes to job interviews. I just seem to clam up. I decided Sunday that I would just GO FOR IT! I updated my resume and filled out the transfer application and submitted it to my team leader.
Today my TL came up to me and encouraged me to be positive. She said going through all these interviews will only make me stronger. She also said if it doesn't happen for me, atleast I still have a job. I said yeah you are right. That made me feel better.
I just received a phone call from the Human Resources guy. He has already set me up with interviews for next Tuesday. He asked me what my current pay rate is and also asked me if I thought this position would be boring. I said it can't be any more boring than what I am doing now. I basically do repetitive data entry all day long. It gets pretty old after doing the same thing for over 2 years.
I am not going to freak out about the interviews. I am just going to go in there with a positive attitude and knowing that I can do anything they ask me to do. He acted like it would be a step down but I believe it will be a step up in the right direction.
Let us all hope that I get this position. Keep your fingers crossed.
