Interviews and Upsets

Since my last post I have been talking with the Host Mum that I mentioned and we talked a few times and she contacted my references and asked them some questions.

The last time we talked was on Monday and I was told I would be told of her decision in the next few days.

Well today I heard from Michal (Au Pair Link OE) and she had emailed me to let me know that the family had fallen from matching and that they wouldn't be offering me the Au Pair job. Then a couple of hours later I received an email from the Host Mum saying that they had decided to go with another Au Pair, but that she wished me the best in my search for a host family.

I think the thing that upsets me most about this is that I didn't hear about this from the family first.

Things happen for a reason so maybe it wasn't meant to be....

A change in US Partner agency and an Interview

Ok, so over the past couple of months things took a downward turn. I hadn't been on view since the middle of June.

Michal (my International Rep) called me and we talked about a new plan of action. We would cancel my application through InterExchange and put it through Go Au Pair instead.

My Go Au Pair profile went live last week (Friday) and also on Friday I received a Host Family Profile. After the weekend I received an email from the Host Mum saying that she would like to talk with me.

Today (Wednesday) we talked and once we finished talking she emailed me and we are going to talk again in the next few days.

Can't wait :D
