You know how get those job descriptions that are just so "officially" worded that you can't really understand what they even mean? That was sort of like the email I got today. I heard back from the editor of the web magazine where I am trying to get an internship. The email started like this:
"You sound great. Let me tell you about our internship."
Following this were more specific details surrounding the hours and duties required as well as to remind me again that it is a telecommuting internship, although I think that's been covered a few times already. At the end, the editor asked "Do you have any questions?"
I wasn't sure what kind of a response to make. Yes, I do have questions. Do I have the job? What more will it take to convince you to pick me?
After discussion with the professor who's been helping me with my internship search, I'm more convinced than ever that this editor must be dealing with a lot of responses. However, I'm still in the running and apparently in positive favor, so this is good news. As the professor pointed out, I'm aware of the communication issues surrounding the emails between the editor and myself, so I'm at least putting my education to some use. Time for my response.
