Interview To A Kill
Whoa, I had an interview today! That's only my second real one since 2005 or thereabouts. It was even more surprising given that I only applied for the position at about 11am this morning. The guy liked that I used the word "overgnomes" in my cover letter and recognized that I would probably be a quick learner, but had some very reasonable doubts about my ability to hit the ground running with the technologies in question, given that I haven't been properly immersed in techiedom for yeeeeeeeeeeeears.
Still, I have a few days to investigate the latest advances in PHP, MySQL, JQuery and Ajax, that sort of stuff, with particular reference to the CakePHP development framework that they use. Anyone have any insights into that kind of stuff? If I can make myself not completely clueless in a very short time I might be in with a chance, I am an extraordinarily cheap hire after all.
Either way, an actual job interview in Victoria! I thought they were an entirely mythical beast.
