Still Waiting...
Unbelievably enough, I still haven’t heard from G2…13 days after my second interview. I was told they’d call me either way by Wednesday at the latest.
I’m so glad I accepted the Edmonton Police Service job. I started on Tuesday and it was actually a fun day. It started with my I.D., then a mug-shot, then fingerprinting, then a tour. Everyone was so excited and positive on my first day, which really made me feel guilty for thinking that as soon as I got the offer from G2, I’d be leaving (and at the time I though that I would definitely take the G2 job, and that I’d definitely hear from them on Wednesday). But with each day here, I feel less and less interested in the G2 job and more and more excited about the City job. Originally, the position was supposed to be mostly administrative, but because of my education, the entire department wants to use me. My boss even said that once I’m more immersed into my PR duties, she’s going to talk to HR about getting me more money, too! There is Media Relations and Public Affairs, and I get to help with both of those departments.
I have almost started to hope that I won’t even be offered the G2 position, so that I don’t have to make a choice between the two. It’s not that I don’t want the G2 position; I just don’t want to have to make a decision, a decision that I could potentially regret down the road.
