Well I got an interview to work at the new Futureshop/Best Buy thats near me, only thing is that I may have to undergo a A+ certification course within 90 days of beign hired, not enitrely sure what it entails or how hard it is to pass time to use my google-fu.

Did you actually get the job, or just an interview?
Posted by TomDavidson (Member # 124) on :
Will they pay for an A+ certification course, or will you be expected to pay for any training and the tests?

I don't know yet interview is today. But usually when they ask for an interview its usually a good sign.

I hope you get the job, but don't assume interview=job. The ratio of interviewees/hires is largely a factor of how many jobs are available and how many job-seekers are out there.

Getting an interview is good, but it doesn't mean that you're guaranteed the job. Good luck with the interview.
I got an A+ cert years ago, and at that time it was easy enough that you could probably have trained a chimp to pass the thing. I understand that it's more difficult now than it used to be, but even so it's not supposed to be too bad.

That would be awesome.

Not a good enough sign to declare "New job!"

Maybe he meant "Yay! New Job! I hope I get one!"

Maybe he meant "I should get a blog!"
Posted by Blayne Bradley (Member # 8565) on :
Probably. (To Matts post)

Pixiest when other Hatrakers stop talking about kniting is when I'll stop talking about good things that happen.

Don't be hatin' on the knitters.

Good luck, Blayne. I hope it works out for you.
