Yep. With age I’ve become numb to interviewing. At a certain point, one accepts their limitations and just tempers expectations. For me that means I interview often in order to bounce to the next best opportunity. I’ve grown numb to judgement and rejection from interviewers. I bring my best self to interviews but I don’t overly prepare. There have been times when I thought an interview went poorly and just chalked it up to interview experience, but then I received an offer of employment. Could have been my nothingtolose attitude or something I said that most interview rule-abiding people don’t say. You just never know. Go get ‘em, kid.

Hi, I recently applied to a salesforce company and was selected for an interview. I had interviews with a recruiter, department manager and hiring manager and did well in them all. My final interview was with the CEO which lasted for about 10 minutes. He said he has read the notes from the previous interviews and the recruiter will get in touch with you. What are the chances I do not get this job given that I did well in all 3 interviews leading to the final interview with the CEO?

Friday was complicated. So, I am going to break it down. Nasdaq 100 Futures (NQ) traded to the 9837 level, 32.75 points short of it's 50% HWB short. It then proceeded to sell off like nobody's business to 9846.50, 31.5 points higher than the projected objective for the HWB short. So, if you followed me on the channel, we were positioned for a nice rally at the end of the day. Markets have no memory on Friday afternoon. So, I think we are going up eventually and rally hard.
