OMG

Just had the following FB conversation with my insider (aka my step second cousin):


Her: CP is totally rocking his interview!! I wont have a chance to talk to him, just a hello in passing. He has completely surpassed the other candidate! Text him and let him know!

Me: Seriously? That's fantastic!!!!!
But he isn't done with all of his interviews yet- he has two more after lunch, right?

Her: Yes!! I was just in R's office while he and L were talking so I lingered a bit. http://static.ak.fbcdn.net/images/blank.gifThey will be taking him to lunch around noon before L wraps up with him. He is LUCKY he didn't interview with C, he is in a rotten mood today (blah). He is in with S now so he is almost done. He impressed R and that doesn't happen very often.

Me: when did the other candidate interview?

Her:  Tuesday and he was a total duchebag! He has a lot less experience CP does.

Me:  ha ha ha. yay for the other guy being a douchebag!!!
oh man i hope CP gets this offer. we are ready to move to chicago!

Her:  That was my exact thought! I'll be shocked if he doesn't! They have been trying for a year to fill this position. I think hes got this! I'll keep you posted!


HOLY CRAP!

I am trying not to get too excited because I know that it is possible that they could inexplicably pick the other candidate or not offer the job to either of them, but man does this make my heart want to burst out of my chest!  I am so proud of my husband!!!

I couldn't resist sending the conversation to my parents because they will be SO EXCITED if we move back to Chicago.  But I will resist posting anything on FB because I don't want people to start asking questions about my vague post (I also hate when other people do that).

How am I ever going to be able to focus on work the rest of today????

As you said in your previous post, CP can't do anything about the other candidate, he can only show up and do his best. Well, the two of you can't do anything about the company or their hiring policies, but only hope for the best. Fingers crossed you get good news!

That is good news, he did his homework and sounds like he impressed them. When will you find out?
