Though after finding out more about the position, it seems like a step backwards in position with only a modest increase in pay (see how much less I&#8217;m making where I&#8217;m at?!? I can find a job in a lower position for more than what I make at my current job!). I&#8217;m afraid that I might be over-qualified for this one, possibly to the point where the position wouldn&#8217;t be challenging enough. If the pay difference was significant enough, I&#8217;d likely take it, but for just a few thousand more a year I&#8217;d be more inclined to just stay where I&#8217;m at &#8211; at least for now.<\/p>\n<p>Anyhow, less than 2 hours after the initial interview they called me and left a message to see about setting up a second interview right away. From what I can tell, that&#8217;s a pretty good sign. So after work today I&#8217;ll be going there to meet the department head and see what he has to say. I feel that I owe it to myself to ride this out to the end and at least see what they&#8217;re offering. We&#8217;ll see what happens!<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><small>This entry feels much better after 2 cool nights of restful sleep.<\/small><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Well the first interview (yesterday) went well.
