Getting The Job I wanted!!!!!

I am getting a Help Desk Support job with a company here in Delaware. I go for my interview on Thursday. I am so excited. If they like me in the interview, They will put me in a 4 week training course and if I pass that, I get sent to a Fortune 500 company somewhere in Delaware. They pay for my training and give me a paycheck for the 4 weeks im training. This is my chance to get into the career of IT that I always wanted but never could afford to go to school for!!!
Just wanted to share my happiness with you all. Thanks. Wish me luck.

Congrats on the new job. Yeah i felt the same way when I got a student job working at a computer store. I was worried that I'd be working at leons moving funriture or something which doesnt require too much job experience, but thanks to doing a high school co-op there, i had a few more opportunities.

Congrats again,
CN

Well I took a Computer Programming Apptitude test a couple of weeks ago. I have no idea what this test has to do with help desk but oh well. It seems I did ok on it cause I got a call back saying I start in May 05. Cna't wait to share my experiences working in help desk.
