Interview with Winder Dairy

I Just wanted to write and let you know that i went to a interview with Winder Dairy today- i interviewed with a Bob smith! he is very nice. The interview was only maybe about 10 minutes long- he told me about the position more into detail. It is door to door sales and it is straight commission. Anyhow as i was interviewing i found and caught myself and it's a habit but, i found myself more than once saying "UM!" again it's a habit at the same time though i think that maybe affecting the outcomes of these interviews. Any advice, tips or idea's on that? i mean i know it's me that is doing it but anything you can think of that would help me not do that- probably not. any advice or anything you can offer would be great.

Interview

I am so excited... As many of you may know i applied for a position at the new WinCo foods store that will be opening in West Valley City, Utah soon! i got a call back and invited to a Information meeting tomorrow afternoon at the E-Center at 3:30 PM- I Hope it goes well. I am so excited! I will keep you posted on everything. If you could all keep me in your thoughts and prayers tonight and all day tomorrow and tomorrow night i would appreciate it.

Information meeting and Interview- WinCo foods...

I just wanted to add a "official" post to let you all know how my pre employment information meeting went with WinCo foods on Friday afternoon. It was held at the E-Center here in West Valley City, Utah- I met with them Friday afternoon at 3:30 PM the meeting was 1 1/2 hours long till 5 P.M. I was invited to a interview this Wednesday September 30th, 2009 @ 1:45 PM at the E-center. Here is my Dilemma... They are a 24 hour a day 7 days a week store- they said in this meeting that "We are looking for people with complete open availability who can work any day and any time." "Not individuals who are looking for set schedules- we need people to work on and be apart of a team!" "Not set schedules etc." "If you are looking for a mon-fri 9-5 or 7-3- (a set schedule) then were not looking for that!" With that being said... I am not going to be able to as least as far as i understand and if i understand correctly- going to be able to only be available to work till let's say midnight (for example) i have to be able to work any shift and day. So if i get the job and or pursue this further there is a very good chance i will be working graveyards, alot or most sundays etc. The problem with that is no church!!, if for example i was to get off in the middle of the night- no way to get home- as i do not have my own car and the busses do not "run" in the middle of the night. So i do not know what to do- I want to be able to go to church - at the same time i do not know what to do because since we all are looking for work and even though no one at home has expressed it (my mom and dad) i feel alot of pressure to i guess you would say "comprimise my standards" and what i am really willing to do to be the provider of the family. Don't get me wrong i do not mind contributing to the family but, to be what i feel would be the sole provider. I feel like i would fail the family and things will "go downhill!" if i don't take this job or anything. I am so scared, worried and confused and discouraged. I should be happy and excited for this interview but, the way i am feeling right now i'm not. HELP!!!

Interview with WinCo foods...

First of all i will say... I do not think i got the job @ WinCo foods. I think my "Journey" as far as the application process has came to a end today with WinCo foods. I went to the interview waited for a few minutes to be called for my interview and then i was called for my interview. Went through the interview and at the end the interviewer/WinCo foods rep. Said "Okay, well that is it- we will let you know within a few days either by phone or letter!" "Thank you so much for coming in!" That is the update!!!
