Job Hunting

I had a second interview last week with the Brazoria County Library System. It went well, I think. The part I hate most about interviews is the first couple of hours right afterwards when my brain is buzzing with all the things I should have said. That's torture!

I have an initial interview with Texas State University on the 18th. This job is my first choice. That is, the job as I understand it now. Once I interview I may find that it's not what I expected. My hope is that I don't get offered the BCLS position until after I've had a chance to interview with TSU.

I have applications out at several other places, two of which I'm seriously interested in. One at the Sonoma County Library and one at the University of Georgia Law Library.

All of these jobs require relocation. That wasn't initially my goal, but I haven't found any attractive listings for local positions. Now I'm kind of excited about the idea of moving and getting a fresh start somewhere. It will be scary of course, but I think it will also be fun. It might be the kick in the pants I need to get over my shyness and to come out of my shell. I did it when I went to college and didn't know a soul. I'm sure I can do it again.
