A Disappointment

Well... I got word today about the job I applied for a couple weeks ago. Apparently, until today, I was in the running for the position. Unfortunately for me the candidate they interviewed today was stellar, so they are offering the position to him and I am officially out of the running.

It was my lack of formal (or informal) experience that really left me out of it. Of course, it is comforting that the group was willing to take a chance with me, and thought I could do the job even though I did not have that experience. I was informed that they are requesting two other positions that they thought I would be a good fit for as well, but as of now those seats are not approved by upper management.

So, awesome for the IT group, so sad for Canda. I'm still wishing and hoping that the guy decides that our offer isn't acceptable to him and declines the position, then YAY for Canda. We'll just wait and see.
