over 6 months ago

Anyone that has read my posts know that I have had several jobs over the last 9 months and basically I get a job done then let go....

As we all do we apply to everything and all hours of the night and not really reading/deciphering things right in our heads...

I applied to something months ago and forgot about it until I got an email last week to fill in more information....I get a call for an interview Tuesday and wanted me to come in on Thursday but she said my pay rate wasn't going to happen (I go back and look at the last email...was reasonable and thought not worth my time to go) but I did...

Interview went great until she asked about pay....the application I had wasn't the one she had and basically I had put on the one 4 months ago that I wanted $72 million a year.....OOPS. We had a good laugh about that and she said her and her boss had a good laugh also and was told to call me in....I was told that only 2 people would be called back for a second interview (they have been doing this for months) with the boss and I was called within 20 minutes of leaving that I was one for 2nd interview next week.

Sometimes you make a snafu on things (like I did...not intentionally) but it did get me called in!
