Oh dear..there are a few jingles that get stuck in my head (mostly ones from old businesses down the Cape, for some reason) so sorry about that. I don't even know where there is a Bickford's anymore..the one I used to drive by in Braintree all the time as a kid is gone now, I think.
The phone interview did go pretty well. I did name drop like a fiend, which I am totally fine with. I definitely have a good idea of how the company operates and I was able to get that across. I also wanted to emphasize that while working there I took an active interest in learning about the company so that I could be more effective there. I didn't have to do that...I was just a temp after all...so I think that it showed some initiative.
The downside? Although she said they were going to be adding positions soon, their new fiscal year does not start until October, so it might be a month or two. I need a job now, damnit! It's hard right now because everyone is on vaca tho.
