@AD1 meh.. depends on the agency. Some may want “not normal"

I think a lot of the times, the interview is really just to make sure you’re not a normal dude. If your work got you to the interview, I am sure you did just fine today. Good luck! Sending good vibes

Being nervous is normal so I wouldn’t worry about that. Interviews are a personality check along with a deeper dive into your portfolio and resume. The more you do them, the better you get, so be sure to periodically look for opportunities to interview.

For me, I have an elevator pitch about myself, along with a few go-to examples of great work, frustrating clients, fun projects, near-disaster projects (that I skillfully saved), and conflict resolution with peers. It’s good to have a few as you may be asked for more examples, or meet with multiple people. I also try to weave in a few jokes or light-hearted comments to the above examples.

I went through two rounds of interviews for
a job that the posting stated $36.66 per
hour (FP&A Analyst)…the company
recruiter had told me in the initial call the
pay could be 32-36 because of the other
benefits. If I do get a job offer what range
should I try for? I was really hoping to get
around the 36-40 but now I feel like they
may try to offer lower than what was
posted. Also there was no range but the
average for this position is upper 70s-90k.
Thanks for any help!

Has anyone been through a situation that you were in a terrible relationship ( stress,anger, fights, swears, physical abuse, ego clashes) and how did you resolve it? Some might have worked on and stayed in the relationship and some might have broken up. I am looking for answers from both sides. How did you stay/work on it and how did you break up and move on? Me and my partner have strong feelings for eachother and are almost inseparable despite going through so much.
