Hi Thomas,

Thanks a lot for the response. See the answers inside.

I'll call today then.

>Do some research on the company. Your local library may be able to help you. How many employees, how much money the company makes, and other information can be obtained in many instances.

It's a state (government) organization. They told me the number of people working but I am not sure, I recall correctly. As I remember, about 2000 people.

>1. Is this a new position?

The prev. person was retired.

>2. What is the immediate assignment and long term goals?

I should have asked that. Basically, the position is to maintain the department's Intranet & Internet sites.

>3. Do you work in teams or individually?

This position is a sole position.

>Well, I could go on as I have had more experience at this than the average person. At one time I taught classes on how to write resumes, cover letters, and how to interview.

>If you do nothing else write a short letter to the person with whom you interviewed and thank them for his/her time and express how much you would enjoy working for the company.

I sent a thank you letter at the day of the interview. I was interviewed by 4 different persons, but unfortunately I had contact info only for one of them. So, I sent her a thank you note and my thank to all other interviewers. She replied politely that I can contact any time. What exactly should be my actions now?

I don't know, if we have a local user group in Columbus. I know, there is one in Clivelend, but it's a 2h. drive... I got another phone call today from different company. Their background - Visual Foxpro with migrating to NET, so looks like a perfect fit. I am going to have an interview with a recruiter tomorrow. What can you advice?

Thanks again.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
