I ended up not getting the job.  It’s so frustrating to have made it to the final round and not get hired.  I wonder why they decided not to hire me for the position.  Was I overqualified?  Did I say the wrong thing?  Wear the wrong outfit?  But, the editor in chief called me personally and told me they were a big fan and they would like to hear my voice on their website—as a freelance blogger.  I have yet to hear the details, so I don’t know if they want me to do it full-time or not.  If it yields a steady paycheck, I’ll be relieved.  As the Rolling Stones song goes: “You can’t always get what you want, but if you try sometimes, you just might find, you get what you need…”
