And if you do land that job, be prepared to start the next week.

Yeah, crap, I made the mistake of not being prepared for that when I moved out here (Cambridge area, MA). I interviewed, they wanted me right away, so I had to literally pack my things and get my ass out there before I could do basic stuff like look for a place to live. I had my laptop and a suitcase full of clothes and other stuff and that was it.
