REALLY GOOD NEWS!!!

Yesterday Martina Johansen sent an email to let me know she will speak with the leader of the Information Commons staff next week and I may then be contacted for an interview or asked for more information.

AARGH!

Today I called Laura at MWC because I seemed to be getting pretty close to being hired at the U of A Main Library and I wanted to find out what sort of paperwork MWC would need.  It turns out that Roger Forrester hasn't done a damn thing since my last post and the Main Library is not a "certified" host agency. 

On my end, Allison Vaillancourt passed me off to Leslie Porter who in turn connected me with the Main Library's HR person, Martina Johansen.  I sent Johansen a cover letter and a copy of my resume and should be hearing from her next week.

MORE ON FORRESTER

I finally managed to contact Forrester and he gave me some good news: The U of A is an acceptable host agency.  Below I noted that I was told that no one at MWC seemed to know ho to contact at the U of A but when I spoke with Forrester, he told me he not only knew Vaillancourt, he had worked with her before. Perhaps Laura didn't know that Forrester knew who to contact at the university.
