[QUOTE="Andy, post: 189424, member: 5096"] The right job will come along! When I was interviewing, I noticed there were two types of questioning which I believed pointed to rather they already knew who they wanted and were just going through the motions: We already know who the job will be offered to: The interview would be focused on the details of the job - do you know the terminology? - most places have their own terminology and not all outsiders would be familiar with them. We are looking for someone and it could be you: The interview would be based on my qualifications. What I had experience in and my work ethic. Does my personality and qualifications fit into the job? I am glad you are o.k. with not getting that job. If something comes up that you think you would like but do not think you have the qualifications, remember, you can sell your willingness to learn. Push that you are able and willing to learn anything the job requires. Some places would rather have someone they can train than someone who thinks they know everything. [/QUOTE]
