A Perfect Fit

This morning I had an interview for a possible opportunity as a sales specialist for a large retailer. I was notified of the job opening through a good friend at church. After reading the description and responsibilities, I immediately knew the job was perfect for me. I was amazed at how well the requirements fit my specific skills and abilities. I sincerely feel like this is the opportunity I have been waiting for to start me on my way toward reaching my goal of becoming a future business executive.

I enjoyed the interview and was glad to meet such a highly motivated store manager. She made me excited to join a team that values working hard to achieve continued success. As I shared my story, I could tell that the manager appreciated my dedication toward personal improvement and vision for my future. She seemed genuinely interested in having me join her leadership team almost to the point of disbelief. I represent exactly the type of employee she is looking for to assist in the store's mission to provide excellent customer service and hit future sales goals.

Needless to say, I am looking forward to hearing back from the store about their decision to move forward with my employment. I completed all the pre-employment test this afternoon and am expecting great news. However, I realize that my background could prove to be an obstacle. I understand that companies must rely on a potential employee's history as a guide for future behavior, but I pray that they are able to see beyond my past mistakes. I know that I will go above and beyond their expectations and hope they see that I am truly a gift waiting to be opened.

As I wait to find out their decision, I am comforted by my faith and trust in God. If this opportunity is right for me, it will simply fall into place. I am expecting the best and truly feel God's supernatural power working all around me. Regardless of the outcome, I will remain positive and move forward with a big smile on my face. I will continue to give my all and leave everything else to God.
