Another hectic week has gone by – I get fidgety and restless when I’m put on hold or rather when looking forward to something (read interview). My life has simply been on hold throughout the week – I got an email at end of last week inviting for an interview (honestly I’m tired of this, why can’t someone just call to surprise me with a ‘you’re hired!’). I could not remember ‘applying’ for the role but what the heck I asked for the job description and confirmed that they had my details right. From the CV they had I was still in the UK. The last time I can remember applying for a role on there website was around January 2008!

I have no problem getting such calls – but from the little experience I’ve had dealing with regional organisations is the slow pace of events. The process can drag FOREVER! Did I mention that in late November I attended another interview up to now a decision has not been made – initially I was told it would take 2 weeks for my fate to be known. We were 3 candidates as far as I know two of us were interviewed on the same day the 3rd guy missed his flight and therefore his interview was re-scheduled.
Up to now our fate is unknown – well I still keep in touch with the guy I met at the interview. Of course contacting the HR office I’m informed to keep on waiting! So much when dealing with foreign funded project roles – probably funding was not forthcoming.

So it is impossible to maintain a standard routine at the moment. Just getting ready for an interview kind of takes over my life – I’m literally forced to prepare (though it is the same questions!)

I’m waiting AGAIN! They were frank to apologise that it is a slow process it could take like a month. I don’t mind but could someone tell these people it would be nice to inform me of the progress.

PS: I had to cancel my trip to Nakuru – 3rd time! Someone down there must really be getting pissed with me. To think that I don't get enough time to even write more - even read - someone is slowly taking over my life I suspect.
Damn!
