Interview fun.

Had another interview today.  I try to dress well for interviews; shined shoes, tie, slacks, dress shirt, leather folio with resumes and such.  I even have a pen.  No matter what job you're going for that as a start isn't going to hurt.  Other positions might warrant a suit even.

That's how I was dressed today and as I walk in the interviewer looks at me and tells me I might be overqualified for the position.  We talk for a bit and yes, I'm overqualified.  He tells me that he has a few other candidates to interview and some that he has already spoken to were in a much different financial situation than me.

Apparently, two of the applicants are trying to support their family with this job.  Do I want the job?  Of course I do.  I must admit that if he wants me for the position then I might feel a little bad about taking the job away from someone else that might need it more than me.
