Gah!
Surprise interview! I got a phone call 15 mins ago asking me to attend an interview at 4pm at a totally different company!

£9k pay rise potentially!

WISH ME LUCK!

So how did it go?

Not too bad from my perspective...
It was in two parts -

An assessment: Basically "Do the job and we wanna see how much you can do with no training whatsoever" - I wasn't amazing but asked the right questions and was told they didn't expect me to get it 'right'.

An interview: This was the easy bit. The interviewers were two young, attractive ladies who'd clearly never interviewed anyone before. I had them like putty in my hand within about 10 mins and basically I 'led' the interview after that. They seemed impressed - I even managed to plug my gig tomorrow and they may actually turn up!

I should find out later today if I get it!
