A side affect of a month (or two) without posting?
I am very much hoping to be interviewed for TL, but I find it disconcerting to be going against a friend or two and co-workers that I know personally.
It'd be interesting for innumerous reasons to get the job, but I can't help feeling that there will be an age bias invoked, written, stated, or otherwise.
I'm only 20, I can't have the 8 years of professional experience some of these jobs are looking for. So the challenge is not getting that experience, it's proving that I could do the job better than someone who has 16 years or more (note it's a doubling of 8, not a reference to the fact that easily half of these people are twice my age, not to mention that I am by far the youngest candadite - to my knowledge).

What I do find a comfort is that for the last two weeks Mike has made at least two attempts to have me apply for SSR1 positions - that's a Team Lead in simpler terms and the equivalent of a shift lead or minor manager/supervisor in lamen's terms.

Just to make someone without that experience understand and appreciate what I can offer.
It shall be an interesting experience anyways.
