Back in 2006 I got a contractor position to work for a large company. So, I gave my resignation at my current job and set things up that I would have one week off between jobs. During that one week, apparently the large company that I was supposed to be a contractor for decided that they no longer needed the extra resources and I am not needed. So, I was out of luck and out of a job.

Since I was already interviewing, my mind was prepped for the whole interview gauntlet. Interviewing full-time definitely helped out since it allowed a lot of time to study and prep. So, it took about another month to find my next role (full-time, not a contractor!).

Interviewing is a job itself!
