I don't know who needs to hear this, but I have a few former classmates and colleagues sweating over lateral interviews. Take a deep breath and relax.

First, doing these interviews does not define you as a person.

Second, take it one day at a time; if they are moving forward, they see something in you.

Third, remember that the people interviewing you are human beings. Connect with them, be personable.

Do you guys find it easy to meet interesting people and has the city gotten any more fun?

Are we allowed to be as obvious as possible during interviews on what clients we worked on so long as we don’t say their name? Ex: one of my clients went through a huge merger in x industry in my city, and if I were to state that in interviews it would be a dead give away. Is that okay?
