    Default 1st Interview!

    So, I've just had a first 'phone screen' interview with a banking institution in Auckland!

    It's the first CV I've sent off - via a little insider info admittedly , but I'm still stoked to have been contacted considering I'm still on the other side of the world.

    Can't say how it went, but I'll find out of I'm into the next round of interviews inside the week - then it's face to face! Well, screen to screen.

    If all goes well, that's us up to 140 points and automatic selection from the pool, so I for one will be keeping everything crossed, that can be crossed - and I'm not as supple as I once was!

    I'd better be having the conversation with my employers soon I think.

    So, apart from appearing to start so many posts these days with 'so', I didn't get the interview apparently based on location more than anything.

    They have very kindly asked me to get in touch with them directly when I land though as they were impressed with my background, so it's not a 'no, and never darken our door again, worthless boy' kind of response. So still some good news out of it I think.

    Definitley worth the experience of the HR interview, especially as it's a loooonng time since I had one.

    Sorry it wasn't an outright 'yes', but good to hear of the generally positive impression.
