Interviews, interviews, interviews!

Had the shortest little interview yesterday for a hiring pool, went great! and I got called back for the second round!!! Oh, and I should add that it is for the district that I not only student taught for... but basically grew up in! Super nervous, but super excited... 
My next interview is tomorrow, so of course I am getting myself all psyched out about it... oh jeez! thought I would take a little break and do some blog stalking.... on TBA of course... which lead to me adding my blog to their first grade links! yay! now to obsessively check my blog patiently wait for new followers!

Also, I thought, since I am in super apply-interview mode that I would post about my 'online' resume. I stole the idea from my sister's boyfriend, who has a fancy website of his own - like a myname.com situation! - but hey, it played a big role in landing his big fancy job.


So, since I of course love me some blogging - I created a blog resume - I made sure to pick the new dynamic display so that it would look the most like a website. After ALOT of trial and error as to what to add, how to add it etc... I think I am finally happy with the end result. The best part is that I can always add to it with out being so pressed for space (ie. paper resume). I even had the blogger url printed on my business cards.
Had a ton of these made for about $9 at VistaPrint.com


The best BEST part is that thanks to the wonderful world of Google analytics and Blogger magic, I can see how many views that page has... it is up to like 2,000 - craaaazy!

I also use Google Docs soooo much... especially to add things like letters of recommendation, professional development certificates, a printable resume... click HERE to see how it turned out.
