Put on a happy face

Ah, it's November, and that only means one thing... Interview season! Last year I attended interview dinners and lunches with a battle-weary air. Having interns recruit is like the walking wounded troops returning from the front lines slapping the approaching reinforcements on the back, telling them, "It's not that bad" as they hobble on home. You smile with sweet, false reassurance and talk brightly about work as if to say, "Who wouldn't wanna be me?"

Only anyone in his right mind. But I made it through, and they will, too.
