I haven’t been on an interview in a long, looooong time. And thank goodness, because I don’t really know what I’d have to say.
“So, you’ve been a… cartoonist… for the past 10 years?”
“Yep!”
(Awkward silence.)
“Okay… thanks for coming in.”
I do remember a certain scripted geniality on both sides though – which is what I was going for here.
Hehe, I can imagine the convo going further, and everytime you tried to guess “what you think I want to hear about yourself”, the interviewee would go, “Nope”!
(hours later)
“Nope”
“Nope”
“Nope”

That is too funny. I remember my first interview. You can practically read that in the face of who you’re talking to. Tell me something that you think I want to hear about yourself.
