Evolution Of A Man

i had an interview today…and it was amazing! the interviewer and i had a great conversation that touched on all sorts of topics- from google and marching bands, to hedge funds and biggie smalls. it’s been a really long time since i’ve experienced an interviewer leading the meeting as a conversation and not a fixed stream of questions. i appreciated that.

for the first time in my life, an interviewer reviewed and described my resume as “very impressive.” that felt really good to hear. granted, i know what’s on my resume, and how impressive those things are; but hearing those words from a seasoned recruiter really put a smile on my face. had to pat myself on the back for that one.

we discussed the possibility of my working for a hedge fund as well as why that would be a great fit for me. after briefly thinking about it in my head, it occurred to me that this could be a really cute good look for me, and that my life is, yet again, about take an unexpected and potentially extremely rewarding turn. like every time this happens in my life, i’m very excited about this new venture. it’s a great opportunity for me to gain an obscene amount of knowledge, as well as gain skills that will no doubt assist me in building my own business. nothing, of course, is set in stone (or in ink, for that matter) yet; but considering how enthusiastic my interviewer was about both me and the firm, i would say- with impressive resume in hand- that i am one step closer to becoming america’s next top model employed. and that’s awesome!
