Man, what the heck just happened... so I had my interview today with Dr. Elmhirst and compared to the 2 previous interviews with the government, this one was like going to the bar and discuss who's gonna win the Stanley Cup next year. It wasn't even an interview... we just talked about the research trials/projects, my future goal working with UNEP and UNDP, and her ambitious plan to expand her company to do some international work in Africa.
So now I just got news that I've been offered the job. I'm not even sure why... she needs a biology/toxicologist student to do the work. She went over some research methods and lab work and I didn't even know what she was talking about. She explained it all of course and said "boy, you will learn lots this semester."
I'm not even sure I want to accept this job because it is in Abbotsford, 60km outside of Vancouver, at least 1hr drive on highway. I will have to buy a car, can't keep burrowing my mom's car... and gas is now $1/litre. Job's pay is only $10... that's horrible. But its great experience.... Then there's the Thursday's interview with Fisheries and Oceans... the one I want.
Here's what the job is:

It says the biology/toxicologist part is a plus, but not required. Looks like it would be an ok job, interesting possiblity.
Good luck on the interview on Thursday! If that one doesn't work out, you'll have this other one.
