Last month I had a job interview but didn't get the job, the interview also hadn't gone too well. But well, the guys at that company are all super nice and at least sent me a reply unlike any other Polish employer ever.
Anyway, so I did a desperate thing, wrote an email to their boss, said that the truth is that I'm more in need of experience (and a reason to put on pants on a daily basis, although I didn't write that in the email :P) than money and would be willing to even do an unpad internship. I didn't get a reply for more than a week or so and had no high hopes but the phone just rang and it was the guy. He said that he read my email and that they don't do internships, unpaid ones even less so, but that a new position just opened up. He described the job to me and asked if I'm interested. It's a far more interesting and challenging job than the one I originally applied for, also a much larger responsibility and a better stepping stone career-wise. I said that I'm sure as hell interested but that I have no experience in such a role and I'd have to learn some stuff first. He said that he's sure that I'll be able to handle it and that they all have a really good feeling about me. We already agreed to a specific day when I'm supposed to show up for work.
I'm so happy, I think I'm gonna vomit rainbows any minute now.
