I am trying to not stress or be negative - I talked to one of my photo editors whom I've worked for as a freelancer about an interview that I had with him and the managing editor for a full time position... he just told me that he didn't think the interview went well as he thought he would: explaining that when I said my end goal was freelancing - they weren't too sure if they wanted to hire me. It is the truth (which I told my photo editor), but I told them that I always saw myself at a newspaper for awhile before I saw myself freelancing. I was always looking for a job, but found that freelancing was my only option... My photo editor says now that the managing editor is fidgety about hiring me and doesn't really know what is going on with the job position anymore.
I will be calling the managing editor tomorrow to check on the status of the interview - so please pray for me that I should be positive and that I will get the job.
I really want the job and feel that I am not motivated to do what I really want to do without a stable income coming in especially when bills are still there - If I get the job, I know that I can continue to grow and will have the passion again to work on personal projects and to continue doing portraiture.
Please pray that I keep the faith and that I am positive about having the managing editor hire me...
