Last week I had a interview, which lately I have had many. I have been interviewing alot lately and the day of this interview I decided to actually read good responses to the same questions I keep getting asked. Well this question I was not prepared for and it showed.
The director asked me, "Personally or professionally what have you gone through in your past that made you look at everything differently, or made you open your eyes"? WOW, this knocked the wind right out of me. I could feel my face actually start to get flush and my heartbeat was a million miles a minute. Of course the first thing that popped in my head was the loss of
Addison. My thoughts were racing and how I would even approach this answer. He could tell I have become very uncomfortable. Then I made the comment as "well I do have a personal experience but I am not sure if that's something I want to get into right now, so let me think of something else".
It was very hard for me to push away the thoughts of
Addison and how she has changed my life in everyway. But for a first interview with someone you never meant before is something for personally and also he was a man. A women I actually might have been more comfortable with just because the sympathy would have been different then a mans.
I was finally able to think of some other answer which was true because it did change me, but it's nothing like the way
Addison changed my life. I am happy to say I did get the job, which I am so excited for. I feel like a new chapter is starting to evolve and for the first time in almost a year I am excited to see what is in store.
Congratulations on the new job!!
