    Interview is now on Thursday. Am trying to push the interview for 2pm rather than 4pm, as it allows me to have time to think and provide feedback to the agency on the same day.
    What?

    FFS, they're not expecting "War & Peace"

        I didn't say I was going to give them War & Peace.

        I need time to digest what happened in the interview followed by feedback and for them to come back and say Yes or No.

            You either want the role or you don't, you're either offered the role or not. Hmmm, how many combinations does that make?

            Oi Fitzy, draw us up a truth table, will you?

              I take it you aren't an Analyst of any kind then?

              I like to have time to reflect on whether I like the place or not (And I am not just thinking of the client site). I need to determine whether the area I am going to has good public transport from the train station to the client site and whether I need to stay in a B&B / Hotel during the day. I also need to make an educated guess as to whether I think the area is safe or not. I need to work out how much I need to spend on transport per week. How much I need to spend on subsistence and hotel costs, if required. If I get offered the role, I like to have as much information as possible to make an informed decision.

              Whilst I am keen to be in work, I don't make rash decisions without giving it thought.

                  The client is offering £120 a day more than my current client.

                    Is that like a Merit Badge? I remember getting plenty of those in Primary School.....

                      I'd have all that stuff worked out before I attended the interview.
