Post Interview:

It's about half three, post the interview.

I think it went okay, but I won't freak out if I don't get it. I'll just apply the strategy I used this time to all the other jobs I can find.

Anyways (I have to do this quickly):

I got there at about five to 12. One applicant was already there, and two more arrived soon after I did.

Two female academics and a male photographer.

One of the academics had just finished her MA and was starting a career in Puppetry. She was pretty, in that Well Educated Crooked Teeth English Girl way (why do I find crooked teeth so attractive?). The other academic had a mohawk and was cultural studies, focussing on gender studies and sexuality. I don't remember much about the photographer.

Anyways, the interview itself was actually done as a group, since the Owner wanted to see how we would react to each other as a group. He asked questions, got us to talk, gave us a minute deadline and the like. It was pretty interesting.

Apparently, out of the stack of applications they had received that week we four were the four that got through. Furthermore, from the first contact we had made we had surrepticiously vetted and tested, subtly pushed through hoops.

I'm flattered that I got through. I don't know if I will get to the next stage (a day of them seeing how I work), but I hope that I do.

Even if I do get the job, I will probably have to find a second job to make ends meet. But that's okay.

Afterwards I wandered through Covent Garden and found some neato little bookshops. One selling books about Advertising, Art and Graphic Design, and another one selling hundreds of books of Copyright Free Images including, but not limited to, woodcarvings, ornaments, all kinds of stuff.

I like Covent Garden.

Anyways, I've gotta go.

I'm going to see the Cat Empire tonight, with a view to reviewing them for FasterLouder and I need to get my Grooving Shoes on.

Over and Out.
