Thank you all! I am very excited (and also slightly terrified ๐) Feeling good about it though. I've only ever had three interviews for 'big' jobs - got two of them, but the last one (2 years ago) I wasn't happy with my performance at all ๐ฌ so lots of prep required.
Not tonight though. Tonight I am doing pasta and crochet ๐7
