I got some interesting information about that job interview I did a month or so ago. A good friend of mine has contact with one of the people who was on my interview board. She had said that I was their top choice. I do not know what happened between my having the top interview and my receiving a thanks but no thanks letter, but clearly something did. There is a background check here, but I don’t think they’d started it yet, plus there is nothing in my background that should have caused a problem.
This is bad news and good. It’s bad in that there might be an inaccurate piece of information about me that’s very easily accessible, or I had some other piece of just plain bad luck. If there’s bad info out there, I am going to have a difficult time finding it, and a harder time fixing it. However if it needs to be done, I’ll do it.
It’s good in that my interviewing skills are clearly light years beyond what they were, and are now enough to make me competitive With other candidates in my field. I put that down to the FRM, and I’d only done a week on the first version at the time.
After my last post, I kind of chanted my first goal over and over for the rest of work and until I fell asleep. I woke up still doing it. I think that USLM has been properly aimed at that goal, but I still restate the goal whenever I think of it.
