The Interview
Aug. 7th, 2009 10:09 amThe interview went very well yesterday. The CEO told me that he'd like me to meet with a couple of his VP's, and that he'd make an introduction for me to the CEO of the local science center. "The goal," he said, "is for each of these people to continue to introduce you to others."
He did let me know that they're not doing a lot of hiring now -- like so many other places. However there is always turnover. I need to keep my eyes on the jobs pages -- and perhaps hope that one of these folks will think of me before a new position hits the public notices.
It was an enjoyable conversation. I'd done enough homework to feel comfortable discussing the high points of the organization's recent history, which helped a lot. It also helped a lot that he opened by saying a lot of nice things about my dad, which is always nice.
I need to write a thank-you note. . .
