Just had my head hunt interview. It was 2 hours and included doing a cold demo of a product I've never used before.
They gave me a basic business case and access to the software for the first time.
If I succeed they're willing to pay relocation costs to QLD.
Let's see how this plays out.
That's a really interesting way to do an interview. Aside from how long it takes it's probably a good way to do things
I've never had to do that before. I had 20 mins to prepare. Access to business case and then the software.
It was kinda fun. I like that kind of pressure. It's SaaS so it's not like it's some vague powershell thing lol
🤞
I've been in Melbourne for 10 years this time around and it's the longest I've stayed anywhere since I was in high school.
Might be time for a change.
Where have you lived before that?
I've lived in SA, Tazzie, country Victoria (which was my favourite).
In Melbourne I usually move house every year because I get bored lol
the five covid years didn't help
I was living alone for all of lock down. Literally broke up with my ex a week beforehand.
At least we didn't have to live together afterwards.
