I can TOTALLY relate to this!! A few months ago when I was looking for another job, over the phone the interviewer would say nice things and go on about how much they loved my resume, yada, yada, yada.......

And then once they met me face-to-face, they would just look dumbfounded as if they were thinking "was that HER on the phone? How did she slip pass me?" *lol*
