    ...and remember to at least smile at their jokes :)

    My nightmare about those sorts of interviews is the
    following:

        Potential PHB demonstrates some missunderstanding
        of a technology/protocol/standard/RFC/whatever
        which is directly relevant to the project. Their
        missunderstanding isn't something that would at
        all affect your ability to get the project done.

        This is an interview situation with a few folks
        in the room.

        Do you play "nice" and not correct the PHB who
        might take offense at being corrected in front
        of others? You don't yet know him well, and he
        could be readily offended by that sort of thing.

        ...or do you correct him to CYA just in case his
        "slip" was a test?

    Fortunately, it's never happened to me :)

  • Hope it went well for you; I've got a similar thing on Tuesday. It'll be nice to be employed again -- finally be able to afford some of the nice books out at the moment =)
