I had a great interview today with the most professional, class act people I've ever had the pleasure of sitting across a table from. I was dreading it because it was a panel interview. Usually I enter those feeling intimidated, then leave feeling interrogated and highly irritated. Not today. I strolled in ready to go and it took off from there. For all I know I probably blew it, but at least I felt great walking out the door at the conclusion.

Good luck Steve, hope you get it! :thunb:

FWIW, I always had the most success with panel style interviews in getting hired.

when I succeeded in turning it to me interviewing them I knew i had the job.

Here's the scoop... I was called about an hour after the interview to be informed that I made the cut. My references and background are now being checked. Hopefully I cross the finish line :)

i heard from someone that sometimes the doors your not meant to go through are closed on you which leaves you to go through the one your ment to. Sorry to hear it man but you will find something that you will be happy with!


Never give up!

That is a real bummer, Steve, I was hoping like hell that you would get this one. Maybe the next one that comes around will be much better all the way around.
