Interview Update

I know the main thing people want to know is how the interview went. I guess it went well. Seriously, I am unsure about it. There were 4 people interviewing me instead of the 2 or 3 I had mentally prepared myself for - that extra person makes a huge difference. It was an hour long interview - longest one that I am currently aware of since two of the other temps also applied and we compared notes. I will not know anything for another week or so until they finish interviews. Once those are complete, I will be informed if I move on to the next round of interviews with two of the big names at work. Oh joy. The goal, according to Aaron (who is the new Exam Developer head), is to get the new developers decided upon and hired by the 23rd of March. This is extremely ambitious since there are Chicago trips starting next week and going into mid-March.
This week was stressful for me. I did not sleep well most nights due to stressing out over the interview. Sleep deprivation does not agree with me at all.
David and I had a relaxing weekend at home. There was lunch out on Saturday but we mostly focused on relaxing. I called my parents since today was Dad's birthday. It was wonderful to talk to him for over an hour. I rarely get the chance to just chat with him since his work schedule is slightly crazy and the time difference between here and home. Besides flying out myself, it was the best present I could give him.

  1. I'm glad you got a chance to relax after all the stress at least. Also let me know next time you're in town, I hate that I missed you at Christmas but I was stuck at work and only went to the suburbs for like 2 days :/

  2. It's not a big deal about missing us at Christmas - sometimes you have to work. I'm not sure when I'll be back east but I'll definitely let you know about it!
