My degree helped!! I have a job interview.
#15
Linda, you'll crush it! I'm sorry I missed the note to send good luck for the phone interview, but you didn't need it! You'll do just as well at this one. Since it's the first face-to-face interview, this is likely where they'll get into the details of your background. I'm a fan of honesty, but do not let too much modesty make you sound outdated. You have the experience, you've done it, and while it has been a while, you feel good about your experience and ability to continue where you left off. As far as the company's diverse range, I imagine they're familiar with that uncertainty, so I wouldn't sweat it too much. If you want to test the waters, though, use someone else's phone (so on the off-chance someone connects to your resume)...call that site and play the role of the stupid potential customer. "Do you perform (blah) testing there? No? Oh, okay. Sorry to bother." Scratch item #1 off the list. Have someone else call about the other. Or still as the uncertain potential client, just ask the receptionist that you've noticed the company does XYZ testing, but what is available at that location?" Eliminate some of your uncertainty by zeroing in on what to prepare for, but if you do not want to do that, as mentioned, diverse companies are familiar with a bit of introductory uncertainty about what specialized locations do.
