More Job Search Stuff

As an update...I did get a response from Interview #1 from Friday, and alas it was another "we went with someone with more background." Kind of a downer, but I'm okay with it. I've gotten so many of those over the last few months I'm used to it now. It's frustrating as hell to always trip at that exact hurdle every damn time, but I just have to keep going.

Meanwhile, Interview #2 from Friday was followed up by #2A with a deeper focus on what the position entails, and it was a REALLY good deal. I'm talking 'holy crap I would LOVE this job' good deal. This particular one went so well that I kind of had the feeling they actually want to hire me but of course I'm being super tight-lipped about it. They said they'd get back to me late in the week and I got a bit worried as I hadn't heard back...only to get an email this morning from them that I their hiring manager was out of office the last few days! *Whew* Still in the running then! The next plan is to set up a face-to-face sometime next week.

Whooof....I haven't been this anxious about getting a job in I don't know how long... O_o
