Once more with feeling

Ok, I took a bit of a nap and an in a much better state of mind to actually talk a bit more about today.

As I said, I was there from 11:30am until 5pm, straight interviews with 6 different people. I had kind of expected there to be a lunchbreak in there somewhere, but that wasn’t the case. No big deal, though, I stocked up on cereal before I left. I was hungry as hell by the end but not dying or anything.

All the people I met with were really cool. I seemed to do really well, answering all the questions presented to me with what I think were good answers. I didn’t seem to put any of the interviewers off, although I’m sure I was a little less vivid with the last person given the length of time I was at it.

Man, it would totally rock out to get this job. I’d get to work on some great software, some seemingly way-cool people, and also make my triumphant return to the Boston area. I’d get to have a friendly rivalry with and Chris Mason, and hopefully make the world a better place through Open Source Software. I know it sounds corny and idealistic, but I think it could be true.

I don’t want to say anything cocky like I knocked it out of the park, but I am pretty comfortable saying it went pretty well.
