My First Interview

I believe I forgot to mention I have 2 interviews this week! Yay! I received a call Friday May 4th for my first interview...which was the one I had this morning. And it was the first CV I sent out! Received the second call Friday past for another interview. That was my second CV I sent out! They are both with Cornwall College - HR Administrative Assistant and Client Services Administrator. The one this morning was for the HR Admin Assist. It's a full time mat leave position until December. I was interviewed by two ladies and thank-God they're accents are not thick and I could understand them well. It was an easy 20 minutes and seemed to go well, but that doesn't mean I'll succeed. They have interviews all day today and are hoping to make the decision by end of day. Keep your fingers crossed!

This afternoon I went for a tour on my own since Keith was at work. I drove to Goonhilly Downs (funny name!) which is home to the Goonhilly Satellite Earth Station. With over 60 giant satellite dishes it is the oldest and largest satellite station on Earth! I only drove into the parking lot so I could get an idea what it was about. Keith & I will have to go back someday for a tour. It looks quite interesting. http://www.goonhilly.bt.com

To get there I drove through a small village called Gweek. It is home to the National Seal Sanctuary. I finally did my own driving on some of these extremely narrow roards that are 1 car width wide and hedges you can't see over. I'm still in awe over those.

After Gweek and Goonhilly Downs I went to a beautiful beach that I have yet to figure out the name for. I was thinking it was Church Cove, but I think it may have been Kynance Cove. I'll have to go back and find out. It was amazing here. Breath taking cliffs and crashing waves. I felt so at home.

I have to take Keith there as I'm sure he will enjoy it as much as I did. It was fun touring on my own because I hadn't been to any of these places before so it was exciting to figure it out on my own - you never know with so many country roads where you'll end up. It was about a 2 hour trip in total and it was finally sunny so it was a perfect day.
