It felt really good to get such positive feedback on my instructional design. AND, I have an interview this week where they asked to see some of my manuals/design work. I can quickly change all the “Customers” to “Members” and tote that along with me. None of my stuff is terribly professional in presentation – some things are just stapled together. But, what I lack in professional binding and printing, I make up for in content and design. I hope they can see that!
The job interview is with another credit union here in town. They just created their first training position. I am really good at going in and helping set-up shop. I also have 8 years of experience in the credit union industry! But, they evidently got HUNDREDS of applications for the one position. I know that means I am going up against other trainers who are very polished, very professional. I wish I could whisper in their ear that super polished and mega professional doesn’t always equal good training. I guess that’s what my interview is for… I think I am the first interview they have scheduled – good sign.
Tomorrow, I am teaching a seminar for VCU – Organizing Personal Documents. I lost the weekend due to the ER visit. So, I am swamped today trying to catch up and even get a little ahead.

That’s great!! Let us know how it goes! You ID is quite professional. Go to Staples and have them put it in a plastic spiral thingy. That might be worth the $5 to look “polished”!
