Interview
It seemed to go very well today. It was pretty informal, and the only thing that could count against me is that I haven’t used to latest version of the software (my company is still using the last version, even though it is heading out of support), but he said that it would be easy to highlight the new features, especially as part of their remit is doing training courses!
He had asked me to bring some of my code, but I couldn’t find anything I had written recently, since my job has now changed, so I took along some bad code from other departments that I had rewritten to be more efficient. He seemed extra pleased with that, says that is a big part of the job, so brownie points to me on that one.
Also, I took along the scores I got when I took the software exam back at the beginning of November. It had the breakdown, including the one section where I didn’t do so well (if 64% is not doing well, anyway). Apparently he got very similar scores to me, so that is probably another thing in my favour.
He then took me on a brief tour of the offices, trying to introduce me to the MD, but he wasn’t around.
Anyway, I should know by the end of the week - I hope so, because if I can’t hand my notice in this week it is going to be the middle of January before I can, and I really want to get it over and done with (not only because I told LELI I would hand on my notice before Christmas, and he didn’t believe me - a girl has to prove a point!).
Bugger me but it’s cold!
