Didn't hear today, which doesn't surprise me; I suspect they were interviewing candidates yesterday and today and will make a decision tomorrow or Friday. Possibly later - but both of the people currently in the position I applied for are leaving at the end of the week, so I suspect that when they said I'd hear from them soon, they actually meant soon. Besides, people who have had assistants for umpteen years are just completely helpless on their own. (Case in point: summer job a few years ago, working as a personal assistant, I needed to know my boss's password for something. He...didn't know what it was. "Uh. I don't know what it is. [Former assistant] always dealt with that." Sigh.) Anyway, hope I get the job. I'm not quite ready to start applying to work retail yet, but I'm getting close.
