I had my first interview in 5 years back in December, and blew it through my usual tendency to self-deprecate, rather than show confidence.

60. It went well...

The only hitch - I don't have First Aid or CPR training...but...I can easily get it. They had me come up with a 5-7 minute speech off the top of my head and I aced it.

It's working for a charter school, which is a non-profit, and I sat on the Board of an NPO for over 9 years and that's why they called me.

There will be 2nd interviews...job to start July 1st, so it will be this week.

Thanks, DUers, I know I can always count on you!

Sounds like you did really well! And I took both CPR (every year for 12 years, since they make changes) and First Aid, offered where I worked, not at all difficult and it gave me peace of mind.

I had to do the CPR thing to renew my teacher's license and it was only one Saturday (and actually quite fun as well as informative) and $90. The classes within a 20 mi radius were full for many weeks, so I had to go about 45 miles north to Paso Robles to take the class. So, sign up early! And good luck!
