Wahoo – I’ve got a new job!!! (140-225)
I don’t believe it – I had my job interview this morning and while it was one of those interviews where it felt really good and friendly at the time I had thought afterwards that, in retrospect, this had made me talk too much waffle and not put myself across as well as I would have liked to. Interestingly they hardly asked any of the normal interview questions (only really why I was leaving my current job), so it was just as well I did loads of reading around the subject as I got asked what I thought a clinical trial involves, and what I know about the disease and vaccine themselves (even down to specifically how they work in the immune system… I had to dredge my memory banks for the one line I read this week and the basic immunology I did back in my undergrad degree… eek!!). I was annoyed with myself afterwards for forgetting to get across a couple of major points that I meant to – mainly because their questions completely threw me out of the usual ‘sell myself’ interview mind-frame… but this afternoon they called and I’ve been offered the job!!!! I just can’t believe my luck. I’m so excited. It’s amazing!

Congrats!
