A new week

It almost feels like the start of a new life this week. I am finally getting some interviews for jobs and I feel like I might actually land myself a job. On one hand I am so excited to start a new job, but then on the other so sad to go back to work after being off for 3 and half years. I am so thankful for the time I have had at home with my husband and my son. For those 3 years I will always be so thankful, and grateful God blessed me with them.
So I have all of these emotions going on... excitement, nervousness, scared, and exhausted.

I had an interview this morning with a Real Estate office in Carmel. Intero Real Estate. This guy is jsut opening his fifth office in the Bay area. Yeah, this guy must make bucks or something. He is really nice and was so pleasant with me. The interview just went so well. We chatted about his business, and then he asked about me and past jobs I have done and how I would fit into his business. He complimented me twice on how well I looked, so I must have got down how to look business-like in California. :-) He told about the growth opportunity I would have by working with him. He is hiring for a receptionist for his new office, but I would also have the opportunity to help agents with close escrow (which if I did that then I would make an extra $250 per transaction, with the possibility of closing 3 or more a month!), plus he said that he would be willing to help me get my real estate license in the state of CA. To the extent that they would pay for the schooling and the cost to take the test and get the license. WOW! Also, while I am a receptionist there, if I had my license and brough in referrals to the agents in the office, I would be able to get a referral fee of I think 1% of each sale I brought in. This jsut sounds like a fantastic job opportunity and I am so thrilled about it. There is so much more to the position but not enough time to write. I need to go for now to get back to searching for more jobs to send resume's too. Also as I write my husband is in an interview... I sure hope it's going as well as mine did today.
Well I am off to surf the internet and chat with my lovely sister! Hopefully I will be back with good news another day.
Blessings to you!
