I have to admit, I'm actually feeling a bit of stage fright: today I have a 30-minute telephone conversation scheduled with one of my company's HR recruiters. I've applied for an Internal Communications job within my company, and I have the audacity to think I'm qualified to do it.
Communication, in my humble opinion, is a meeting of minds. One sends; the other receives. If the meeting is successful, both parties come away with the same understanding.
I studied a few foreign (to me) languages for the joy of being able to communicate with people on their terms. And IN their terms. And so I could mutter at my computer in Japanese without hurting too many people's feelings.
I'm not sure if this is an interview-interview or a screening interview. Either way, I'm happy finally to get an "up or down vote" as the congressional term goes. I'll do my best not to start babbling--or shall we say filibustering--at the nice HR lady.
At least SOMETHING will be communicated today! Thank you for letting me let off a little nervous steam here.
