Big interview coming up

MrClean · 09-29-2011, 03:53 AM

I've been with the same company for the past 10 years, telecom industry. I've had several interviews over the years, and managed to land the jobs I was applying for except for one.
This morning I have another interview. Same job function pretty much just a promotion to the next level. I usually don't get too nervous about these interviews, I've known the people conducting them for most of my time with the company. But this time around the difference will be a much higher salary (more stick money right?!) and that aspect of it has me a little nervous.

Thanks for listening, this is just a way for me to cope with the nerves. /rant

So? What was their feedback? When do you expect an answer?

Blak Smyth · 09-29-2011, 03:10 PM

Wear a tuxedo t-shirt so they know your fancy, but you like to party as well!

Good luck brother!!!

They will give their feedback after the selection is made. It'll be a couple of weeks.........mid October they said.

I did ask them if it would have helped to bring a six pack with me....they said yes. I've known the 3 managers I interviewed with today for almost as long as I've been with the company.

I always think afterwards that I didn't do well. But I thought that when I got the position I'm currently in. What do they say? We're our own harshest critic. I'm going to enjoy a drink and a stick later and just forget about it until next week. It's my weekend!!

Thanks for the well wishes!! I'll dig this thread up in a couple weeks when I find out.

Blak Smyth · 09-29-2011, 03:24 PM

Good luck again, I look forward to hearing about you getting the job!

kelmac07 · 09-30-2011, 12:02 PM

Best of luck.

Good luck!

Good luck!

These are people that you are reasonably familiar with, so it's hopefully going to be easier than if you were interviewing with a brand new company. God knows I've been through more interviews than I care to remember in the past decade, and some of them still give me nightmares.

Drez · 09-30-2011, 07:06 PM

good luck brother!!!!!

Ogre · 09-30-2011, 07:42 PM

maninblack · 09-30-2011, 08:29 PM

Best of luck to you!

Good luck, I know you can do it!
