So there was this initial interview and then a second one to meet my temporary director. The first one was great, I felt I could really be myself. It was cool they cared about people being in recovery from something to work there because life experience is priceless along with education and work experience. You could really feel the care and compassion to help others radiating from the people there, and that was totally right.
