*eep* Upcoming interview

I saw a job listing yesterday and sent in my resume... talked to the recruiter today, and I have an interview on Monday!

It's been so long since I've been to a "traditional" job interview. I've been doing some consulting work, but getting that sort of work is a different process.

I also have to schlep down to NYC for the interview. (The job isn't in NYC but the interview is.) That's a long train ride plus some subway time. I'm concerned that I may be worn out by the time I get there.

I'm also worried that I'm going to blow the interview...

Good luck! Give yourself enough travel time. The subway seems to be slow lately, or maybe it's just me.

Thanks

The interview was yesterday afternoon. I'm looking at it as a proof of Murphy's Law. (!) It was unseasonably warm and humid in the New York area yesterday, so the suit I'd planned to wear was too warm, and I had to scramble to find a summer weight suit that fit... then my car wouldn't start! I did get down there in time, though. For the interview, I was in a conference room with six people firing questions at me all at once - very grueling.

I should know within a couple of days. I hope I get this...

I had a second-round interview today. Should know something next week. Now for the hard part: the waiting...
