Interviewing While On Vacation

While on vacation in Southern California, Jake, one of my recruiters, set up an interview for me. It was for a tech lead type of a position in an early stage startup called Picateers. The company provides a platform for schools to sell portraits to parents, friends and families.

I know I am the right person for the job, but I don't think I did extremely well with the VP of Engineering. I could have done better if I had prepared a little more on things mentioned in my resume, and presented my J2EE skills in reference to projects I was in charge of. Luckily, he said he would bring me in for a second interview. I need to do better and show a bit more technical depth in the 2nd.

Go nail the 2nd!!
