    I may still need to have some of my circuits tweaked. I'm not quite there yet.

    Apologies.

    Good luck with the interview, I'm sure it will be fine.
    Knock first as I might be balancing my chakras.

        Gone back to plumbing have you? Probably for the best.

          He still likes to twiddle with his pipes so I've heard, but I reckon he'd like to twiddle with yours more.

              You're in no position to mock Suity. Still, look on the bright side, at least this means more time for the two of you to spend down the gym together. I've heard they're even upgrading the changing rooms, putting in a new bench to sit on so you don't have to bend over when doing up your shoelaces.

                3 interviews?
                I had all 3 done in 2 days.
                1 HR - phone
                2 Tech Interview - phone
                3 Partner Skype chat - took all of 5 minutes.

                So less time than a standard walk-in interview, wish there were more like that!

                Great role and rate but away from home so took something closer.

                  I'd be wary about this one.

                  Best of luck btw.

                  Also good luck with your first performance review and pending IR35 case.

                  Second interview.
                  Third interview? Sorry guv I got pissed off waiting for a decision I took another contract elsewhere that only gave the one interview.

                  We are contractors FFS. If they interview you like a permie, expect trouble.
                  But if they just bring someone in quickly, they end up with someone like you who appears to know their stuff but then gets demoted to DBA and posts all their assignments on CUK for help.

                    For my last gig I had 5

                    Phone interview with the two hiring managers
                    Then they flew me over for a face to face with Departmental director, COO and the two guys I spoke with originally, all separate hour long interviews.
                    A week later I had yet another phone interview with the CIO.

                    *phew*

                    Depends on the company.

                    Most other interviews I had were 20-40 mins tops with just one person and that was it.
