Advice Please...

So turns out that interview I was waiting on will still happen. The women lost my number and contacted someone I know and wants me to call her.

But then this same person we both know said I need to be careful because she is a very very hard person to work for. Do you think I should even bother? My gut says not to even bother.

Recap: FT SAH position.

As someone who has worked for VERY difficult people, if you can deal with it & stay with them...they value you even more.

I would still go through with it.
What one person thinks is tough another person may think is tolerable.
You should be the judge.

Good Luck!

I agree, you should call. Just because the other person doesn't get along with them doesn't mean you will have the same issues.

I would go for the interview anyway, although I, myself hate working with people like that. The only way to validate her opinion is to judge for yourself.

i would go for it. Just going on the interview doesn't hurt...you can always turn the job down if it's offered to you.

I will say this though - make sure you listen to your intuituion as you speak to your would-be boss. Try to get a feel for the type of manager she is. When I was interviewing for my current job, there was some awkwardness between me and my now boss...in the back of my mind, i remember thinking that I wasn't 100% sure we 'clicked'...that something was a little off. It's 4+ months later and it turns out that my intuition was right - my boss is a pyscho.

Re: Advice Please...

absolutely go for it. What can an interview hurt, hear it from her. You have to work for her, not your friend. I had a boss that no one could stand, but I had no problem with them. You never know you might hate the position or actually like her.
