That's what i'm hoping for...he did say he's looking for either 3 junior artists, or someone with a bit of experience and then just one other junior...and he seemed to tick off a lot of things on his list with me for the bit of experienced position...

naaa...though they use to be mostly part of Impressions Studios which had an office in Blighty, but then they got bought out by Sierra and was raped and pilaged, so all the leads went and set this new place up a few years ago.

Having said all that-it surely sounds encouraging AND good-only wish you the best old Bob,

Natick was fab....that's where we were looking for places mostly because the 3W's were a tad pricey....very nice though...and all those golf courses will be a reason for the in-laws to visit *l*

Bob, did you send them a thank-you e-mail?? I usually send something like;

I enjoyed our discussion regarding the ****** position at ****, which we discussed this morning.
I am sure you would agree that am an excellent candidate, based on the information that I shared with you detailing my extensive ******** experience and historical excellence in many varied markets.
I am extremely excited about the opportunity to ************for ******* .
Looking forward to entertaining an offer and would like to begin discussing details as soon as possible.

Not that it's done me any good, but recruiters recommend it to appear enthusiastic

Oh dear! Well at least they've got to the offering you the job stage, instead of not giving you anything. It will happen LH, one of these days.
