The job in Wellington just called. My telephone interview is tonight at 7 p.m. (4 p.m. Wednesday, NZ time).

Just remember that it is Wellington, not Aukland. It'll be just as "new" as Toronto or Victoria, and you won't be there with some broke-ass dipshit that can't even pay his own rent, let alone yours. If this comes through, I'm buying you a house.

Yeah, I'm a bit nervous about it. But you know me, I'm always afraid of history repeating itself, whether it's likely or not. Call it a knee-jerk reaction.

I'll do what I can to mitigate that :-)

It went well. I'm pretty certain I'll get a second interview. The person who I'll be replacing (who was in the interview) as also hired abroad (Scotland). The Kiwi was worried I'd have problems with the Scot's brogue - I didn't have the heart to say that I could understand the Scot better than the Kiwi.

It went well. By far the most promising nibble I've had yet.

excellent. so, given the distance and expense of travel, will this whole process be conducted entirely over the phone, or might you be flown down there for a final interview?

I really don't know at this point. I imagine I'll find this out in round two.
