Title: Fruit company update Post by: Volznut on December 19, 2012, 08:51:34 EST So the fruit company did fly me out to interview Monday. It was the most grueling thing I have ever gone through. I talked with about 9 people over a span of 7 hours. Lots of technical talk, lots of repetitive questions. I think I came out ok - we will see if they offer. I am not sure they will, I was one of 11 candidates they interviewed for the position. It's a pretty strong position.
If they do offer I would have a lot to think about. Not sure I would accept or not, but it would definitely be a huge career move.

That is if you don't mind saying.

It was worse than getting wisdom teeth pulled. Just a long long day.

Making these moves is pretty easy when one is young.....more to think about when one is older. Whatever you decide I hope it works out well for you.
