I need time to digest what happened in the interview followed by feedback and for them to come back and say Yes or No.What happens in General, stays in General.You know what they say about assumptions!Comment

Originally posted by SupremeSpod View PostI'd have all that stuff worked out before I attended the interview.
I need to know in advance about whether I want to be there and what premium I put on working in a particular location. Once I know that, then I can factor that into whether I'm interested in the role or not, really. Once I know if I'm interested or not fussed, I can determine how hard I need to try at the interview.
Normally, I know roughly how much it will cost to be in a location before the CV has even gone into the client - how else can you price yourself accurately without knowing what the costs might be??Comment

If it turns out that the commute or the hotel costs are too high, then it is a case of either negotiate, walk away or bite the bullet and take the role, especially if I think the role adds value to my CV, but this is dependant on how I get on with the people interviewing me.
I found out from someone I am working with at current clientco that there is a free bus service from the station to the client site, which is a bonus, and helps towards keeping my costs down.
There's more to it than what I am saying on here, but the above is just some of the things I prefer to find out on the day.If your company is the best place to work in, for a mere £500 p/d, you can advertise here.Comment

Originally posted by pmeswani View PostEveryone works differently. I attend the interview and go in with the intention of getting the role. I do my research of the location on the day in terms of whether I like the place (General area and the client) or not. I know I can google a lot of stuff, but I am a believer of seeing is believing in a lot of things.
