Good luck Ich!

It's always nerve racking, but the result can be well worth the effort.

Hope it goes well for you.  ;D

Best of luck, Ich. We know you have the skills. Let's just hope those in charge recognize it, too.

I won't say I'll pray for you because that may not be in your best interest--may actually hurt/eliminate your chances. I'll just wish you luck and leave it at that. If you need references feel free to use superQ. :o

It is always easier to interview when you have a job. Kinda like puts you in the drivers seat---kinda :up:

Luck is definatly something thats needed in Sweden when you apply for new jobs, there are about 300 people on every job available here.
Good luck IchBin, i keep my fingers crossed for you, just be you and hopefully they will see and feel what we do in here so you can come home and tell your old boss "Bye Bye"  :D

The interview went pretty well. I was interviewed by the Hardware and Software managers at the same time. The hardware guy was drilling me pretty good. As I had put some things on my resume about the server stuff I have done. After he was done asking me a bunch of questions he said he was just testing me to make sure I didn't lie on my resume lmao. If I get the job I will start by supporting their software that they have. Imagine that, me and support... lol Then work my way in from there. The Software lady walked me out and told me that she thought the interview went well, and I should hear by Friday whether I get the job or not. So keep your fingers crossed until then. :D Thanks everyone!

lol, actually no I didn't get the job. The lady I was interviewed by said the only reason she didn't hire me was because they hired someone from in house. She said she wanted to hold onto my resume for future positions and told me she really did want to hire me. So... the job hunt continues. :)

Thanks for all the thoughts everyone!

Better luck next time, but even the sorry we chose someone else is very positive.

Well, I know for sure they will still have the server. And nobody in that company knows anything about it. I'm sure they will ask me to continue to help them on it in my spare time, as they are too cheap to actually pay someone the right amount of money that they should be. If I do lose access I will host it from my home.
