Mercer

Remember my posts about interviews? well, Sam got invited for a couple, it was a very stressful week, we had to hold our breath each evening as we waited for the response on whether or not he had been invited to the second round. I'm certain some people loose weight because it's pressure pressure pressure! if you are not successful with the companies you applied to then it's back to the drawing board, writing applications and the like.
The interviewees had to look their best, which means you had to do everything in your means to look sharp. I'm not too sure what the ladies had to go through but for the guys things were cut out. Black shoes, black or navy blue suit (limited to particular styles), white shirts and red ties, they were advised not to steer far from that.
I'm glad Sam and I have our faith in God because once you depend entirely on your own efforts it can be really disappointing. I prayed for Sam everyday that he would have favour and that the Lord would open the right door and lead us where He would have us go. God has a real interesting sense of humor, out of the seven companies he interviewed with, three called him back for a second round and in the end we got one offer. There was no space to debate where God would have us be.
Come June we will be heading to Dallas Fort worth for an internship of about two and a half months with Mercer Consulting Firm. Then we will be back with the Texan accent and may be some cow boy boots to show for it. I hope all y'all know what I'm talkin about.
