Interview

I had my interview!

It was supposed to be a phone interview but my interviewer is at a conference and had poor cell reception. So, instead, we did Google Hangouts. I hadn't expected to be seen, so I was makeupless, hair pulled back, chillin' on my couch with Jack. I looked gross, but whatever. I could have done Google Hangouts without the video part, but I wasn't sure how to switch it to that (video is what I always used for school) and didn't want to accidentally hang up on my interviewer.

Anyway, she asked me the standard questions and some more thought-provoking questions. Standard: why are you interested in doing this?
Thought-provoking: What do you think about sustainability of this project?
Funny (to me) question: What is a token board? (Funny because I use different ones every day - it was like asking me what is a pencil.)

Apparently there are still a few openings left in the Dominican Republic project. She didn't even ask me about my second choice location.

Overall, I felt my interview went very well. My interview needs to be reviewed by some other people and I will find out in a week whether or not I am accepted on this mission of awesome. Here's hoping!

Interview Scheduled

I now have a phone interview scheduled for Tuesday after work! Normally, I hate talking on the phone, but I cannot wait to speak with them! I am super excited about the idea of volunteering with autism clinics overseas! *cheesy grin*

Quick Update

They've asked for my resume. I sent it in. Waiting to hear back....

Crossing Fingers and Toes

I have the best job in the world. I have stable hours, I can dress comfortably, I can be silly and unique, I am constantly learning new things, I am making a difference in people's lives, and I get to work with silly, funny, adorable children. I work with kids on the autism spectrum.

It's the best.

I just submitted an application to the Global Autism Project's Skill Corps to volunteer my skill set as a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) for two weeks in another country. I chose the Dominican Republic as my first choice. My second choice is Kenya.

If accepted, I will need to raise $5,000.

If accepted, I will be starting a GoFundMe page and commence begging.

If accepted, I will embark on a life-changing mission of servitude.

As Tutu, my grandma, said: I'm crossing my fingers and toes.
