Yesterday I went for my first interview at a small web based start-up.  I have been working for 6 years now for a large company as a software engineer.  It is time for me to move on, and that is why I went looking for something new.

The company that I interviewed with currently has 18 employees.  I felt like I met all of them yesterday!  I was asked technical questions by 4 different engineers and general questions by the HR manager.  The people there seemed a little bit like a small family.   They were all very nice and made me feel welcome.

Given that I have not job searched in awhile, I spent quite a few nights preparing for the interview.  I went over a ton of questions on this site, and I must admit that I was asked a few of them.  Just the process of going through the questions helped me prepare and get in the mindset of being drilled in a interview. 

Now we will just see if I hear back from them!  Even if I don’t, it was good to get out there an interview.  I certainly won’t be hesitant to interview more.
