For those of you who have spent more than five minutes talking to me about work and how I found my job, and for those of you who work for the federal public service, you will understand that the following statement is no small (or quick!) feat:
I got a promotion.
I found out yesterday that as of Monday, I will be officially cemented into my job. No longer "acting", I am the real deal.
The process was a relatively short one. I began my current responsibilities in August of last year. In January (I believe) a poster for my job, and others at the same level, went up. I sent my CV and waited. Then I was told I was screened in, and I waited. The Thursday before Easter, I wrote the exam, and waited. And in late May, I did the interview. Then waited again. I figured after all that waiting that getting the results would be rather anticlimactic.
But then I got my letter of offer yesterday. And I was elated. So now I am (starting Monday), officially the Senior Advisor to the Director General of Communications. Whatever that means.

Ça vaut la peine d'être patiente!

Congrats! I can't believe you kept that under your hat all through lunch Thursday!! This is great news!! :-))))
Congratulations Cristina! Sometimes the government is so slow.
(with apologies for the sadly belated comment...)
Awesome! The DG is lucky to have you. :) It's funny now to think of us as lowly summer students at PCH...and now you are a senior advisor. So cool.
Congratulations! :)
