Today we talk with an internal candidate. She knows the issues well, can speak our language. And I am delightedly surprised at her grace and at the new ideas she puts forth. It is obvious that she has thought about our processes in depth. I am proud of her professionalism and competence.
It is never easy to interview for a higher position in the same organization for which you currently work. I am fortunate that I never officially had to do that. I have been often promoted within the organization I was working for, but not in competition with outside candidates. I was just always booted upline by my boss who could see me getting more done in a different position. I have been blessed.
I have watched others interview for a promotion type of position, and I know it can go badly and often results in the person leaving if they do not get the position. I sure hope that does not happen here. The loss would be intolerable!
Well we shall see. One more to go.
