Good News!!! :D

Hey Lilys,

Hope you are happy and well. I have had the busiest few weeks which is why it has taken me so long to write a new post.  First of all, I must tell you the good news about the Manchester Fashion Week intern situation.  I received some good news and I had email to say I have been chosen to intern for the week. 

Secondly, after applying for a million jobs and an inbox full of reject emails.  I found an email from Sainsbury’s offering me an interview for the Buyers Admin Assistant role on Childrenswear I had applied for in the Coventry Support Centre.  I was so happy and I could not believe my luck!

I made sure I was well prepared for my interview and did lots of research including going to store to look at the product.  I was so nervous for the interview but I felt well prepared.  When I came out of the interview I was so pleased with how it went and thought to myself, well if they do choose someone else then at least I know I did my best and gave a really good interview.

The next day I found out the best news ever and I had been offered the job.  It felt absolutely amazing!!  Wow wow wow :)

 

I prepared myself for the big move down to Coventry which worked out great because I have family in the area and they kindly offered to let me stay.

It was my first day on Monday and it went great.  There is a lot for me to learn as my background is with Costume Jewellery and also it has been such a long time since my last role in buying.  But I have been there one week now and everyday I feel as though I am learning something new and I feel as though I will have a lot of responsibility once I am settled in a bit more.

There is a really good energy in the work place. Already there has been super hero conga and lots of fundraising events taking place.

Red Nose Day fundraising conga :)

Now that I have a full time job this means that unfortunately I won’t be able to participate for Manchester Fashion Week, however I emailed them to see if they were going to do anything at the weekend if there were any events I could help with.  They emailed me back to say that there is going to be a wedding show that I could work which I was just the news I wanted to hear.

Things are actually going well for me and I feel like I am on the right path now.  There were times when I felt a bit negative but it is so important to not give up and stay positive.

Love LilyLish x
