I most certainly did! Talk about tenderhooks! Rang the agency back to give them feedback as requested after the combined three interviews (one by phone), and she was in a meeting, did not hear back all afternoon, then just as I was on the bus going to the No Strings Attached screening, the call came, they were really impressed with me and would I still be interested in the job? Oh, yes! Is this what I want? Oh, yes! Finally, she told me they had offered me the job, spent the rest of the journey negotiating the terms and conditions!

Thanks everyone! What a day it has been and two superb screenings and wine and popcorn. Who could ask for more? I am very, very happy tonight! :D :D

Congratulations, pxc - you must be so employable, it's a real feather in your cap - out of one job and into another. And what a wonderful day all round!

You must share some of your interviewing technique, pxc, as it obviously worked like a charm!

Speaking of interviews, I just found an email from the London 2012 Gamesmaker (volunteer) organisation inviting me for a 90 minute interview! Eek!
