X-post I got the job! UPDATE
They are making me an offer. I don't know how much they are offering me yet. I know they won't match my current salary. So now I am waiting to see the number the offer.
I'm hoping its something close to my current salary.
UPDATE:
UPDATE: So I got the offer from the woman I first interviewed with. They are "authorized to offer me" $15K less than what I currently make. IF things weren't so tough right now, I would have taken it on the spot. But things ARE tough, so I need to consider it.
DH and I both got home very late last night. Its a Jewish holiday and I took DD to temple. So when DH came home from work, it was 10:00 before we even strated discussing it.
With the offered benefits (which I need to confirm) its a difference of about o$8K. I am going to ask for that amount, but since I am pretty sure the job is not negotiable, I am not expecting to get it.
DH and I crunched the numbers last night, and I am pretty sure I am going to take it!!! I swear, at 10:30- after being so exhausted. I actually did a happy dance!
I AM SO EXCITED!! Its very exciting for me. It's so different from what I have been doing. I have been practicing litigation in commercial litigation and construction law for the last 8 years. This new job is managing the defense unit of the NYC Child SUpport Enforcement Unit. I will be managing 3 attorneys. Hopefully, this will be a good step for my career.
And most importantly NO BILLABLE HOURS!!!
So ijust need to confirm some stuff about the benefits, try to get some more $, then I'll be accepting the offer and entering the wonderful world of the city's red tape!!
