Well, that could have gone better. The ultimate result is that I'm not getting that job, but that the guy is keeping my resume on file because he knows a particular position is going to open up "soon" and that position is a much better fit for what I do. Whatever "soon" means. Of course, it would have been nicer if the job description had *said* that they were looking for someone with 5 years of financial modeling experience, but that's neither here nor there.
I had my coworker poke her friend at the company to see about the other job I applied for, and I guess I'll just have to wait and see. I'm not discouraged, but I'm not encouraged, either.
