I have an interview tomorrow

so I've been in Charlotte for a little over a week, and I have my first "real job" interview tomorrow. It's with a sports publications company. They do stuff like game programs, and stuff like that for major league teams, and many college teams and conferences. It's a sales job, but I'm also taking my portfolio in in case they want to consider me for a job doing the design and production for their clients. Hopefully it goes well, I need a damn job

Tim, whats the name of that company? I had a similar "job" that was nothing but telemarketing.

Did the ad go on about "do you like to talk about sports"?

Professional Specialty Publications. nah, it didn't say anything like that. It is an inside sales job, which does entail doing stuff over the phone. selling advertising space and whatnot. The pay is decent, so if I get the job I'll take it until I find something else.

Re: I have an interview tomorrow

interview went well this morning. pretty funny, because as we introduced each other, he asked where I graduated from. I told him Georgia Southern. and he told me how he was a big UGA fan and graduated from App State, which UGA is the school I hate the most, with App State being 2nd. haha. made for a fun conversation as we kind of gave each other some good ribbing about the schools. but the rest went well. It's an inside sales job as I mentioned, so it's basically making phone calls and selling advertising space. decent base pay, with commission, so I have the potential to make really good money. as my first job out of college, I hope I get it. It will give me some experience, and give me something to put on my resume. He said next I'll get a call from corporate for a phone interview. Hopefully I'll get it

Re: I have an interview tomorrow

Did you put your "beer pong champ" on your experience or skill list on your resume?

be sure to send a thank you letter for the interview (email is fine if you have his address).
Restate what you said above about your enthusiasm for the job and how you feel you'll be a good fit.

good luck!
