Job Search Update

My job prospects have been looking up! 

Mechanical Design Engineer, Harrisburg, PA.  A recruiter called me about this position and I had a phone interview with the staffing woman yesterday.  It was a basic interview, she asked a few open-ended questions, which I guess I handled okay, and I asked questions about the business and their growth.  I'm scheduled to talk to the hiring manager at that company on Friday, who will be able to answer more of my questions about the job details.

Mechanical Engineer, Pottstown, PA.  Another recruiter called me yesterday about this one (35min west of us).  She supposedly sent my information to the company.  I don't have much info on it, apparently the company is known for making co-axial cables.  She was supposed to e-mail me but I haven't heard from her yet; she also said she would call to follow up.

Mechanical Sales Engineer, Philadelphia.  I applied here and followed up with a phone call today.  The VP seemed excited to talk to me and asked me to come in for an interview, which is set up next Tuesday at 9am.  I hope I can squeeze into a suit!  The VP says, "Now it's an old warehouse in West Philly, so don't be concerned."  I was relieved, until I realized that's what a serial killer would say.  He also said parking is in the back, and enter through the shipping office.  So...wish me luck.
