Landed a phone interview tomorrow with a major vendor. I was planning on starting my own company after VCDX, but now that's on hold depending on how the interview goes. Timing sucks, but when an opportunity presents itself, gotta seize it.

Same thing happened to me. I quit my retail job to work for myself a bit, as soon as I did and posted it I was hit with some good offers. Where were those offers a few months ago? -

Optionsdave330i Member Posts: 2,091 ■■■■■■■■■■Tech interview was interesting. Due to crappy cell reception, when the interviewer called, it went directly to voicemail. When I called my voicemail, the provider had just finished migrating voicemail box, so all users had to setup their mailbox again. After 5-10 min of configuration, was able to access my voicemail, call the interviewer back, apologize about the voicemail and start the interview.
Interviewer asked me about my strengths & weaknesses in virtualization technologies then asked questions mainly focused on areas I identified as my weaknesses. Managed to answer enough of them correct that he's recommending my hire.
Due to scheduling quirk had the face to face meeting with the PM before the tech interview. Looks like the only thing left is salary negotiation.2018 Certification Goals: Maybe VMware Sales Cert

Ended up interviewing with 4 people over 3 hours. Managed to answer all their questions pretty well. Didn't have anything that was complete stump. They should be in touch early next week.2018 Certification Goals: Maybe VMware Sales Cert
