OK so now we wait- 
Test- Completed
PAT- Completed
Interview- Completed (awaiting next step notification)
So we did our informal personal history questionnaire on Friday and then we were able to sign up for our interviews. I signed up for first day of interviews and 7:30 AM
. Thought to myself it will be better to get the process started so my wait will be cut down, first in first DQ or moving on....well maybe not.....talking with the interviewer and reading the paperwork most of the interviews will be completed prior to moving anyone on to the psych testing which is a bummer, cause in hind sight i would have hit about the middle of the pack to maybe eliminate a little of the wait on the front and back ends.
Owell that is really no biggie except i just don't like waiting.
So here is a question I am pretty sure i know the answer too...
During the interview most questions were "ask" - "provide answer" and didn't really need or more importantly want a long explanation to go along with them. However a couple of the questions let you open up abit more and sell yourself and your ideals. I still got the impression they wanted me to be honest and thorough but not long winded but I feel as if I didn't answer "enough" to promote myself.
So the question is should I write these questions down and answer them again, not changing but expanding on what was already said and submit them to them now (after the interview) or just let it be and see how it goes?
I don't want to bug them since they are VERY busy but I would hate to have them thinking my interest or planning wasn't there because my answers were shorter then my hindsight wants me to have made them.
Now to rant.....
Holy crap hindsight sucks, I left the interview feeling pretty good with only a minor bit of regret for not expanding on some details about myself but that regret seems to be increasing as I think of more things I should have said. Why do we do that to ourselves? Nothing like a unhealthy bit of nervous anticipation to keep ones mind from focusing.
But you know all in all I am very happy with what I have done.
I passed the written/video with flying colors, killed the PAT, and lost 50 lbs in the process. Even though I know this might not work out as a career right now I am better for the experience for sure. However I am sure I will gain back 5lbs eating Cookie Dough if i get DQ'd but I most certainly wont keep the weight on.
Post Back when the next step happens!
Good luck to all the rest in the process!
