Except for the traffic. I'm pretty damn sure South Florida traffic is still a frakking nightmare.Hmmm, yeah, that was pretty much right. I-595 heading in Thursday night, definitely nasty. The drive into Hialeah on I-75 went well, but driving back? Bumper-to-bumper from Miramar to Weston...
As for the interview itself? Florida National College was hiring for Library Director. Supervisory, with two librarians, a library assistant, and a handful of clerks on staff, so it was a better staffing situation than the previous small college I interviewed last year.
The interview itself went... I have to admit I was rusty. Haven't interviewed in a year. There were questions from the panel about why I had a year-long gap on the resume: I noted I was taking classes for computer certification and was job hunting, noting the current difficulties of the job market. They asked about how I lost my last full-time job: I answered honestly (incompatibility) but it's never easy explaining why you lose a job. They seemed to be packing in a set of interviews that afternoon, so I do know there's competition for the spot (in this market there has to be. Officially it's six people per open job: from the rumors I'm getting it's more like twenty per open job!)
Well, we'll see how it goes.
