Day 65 Log

This morning, I got a phone call around 8 AM from the recruiter I spoke with yesterday who had new position, I was asked if I could take a test or two to show my proficiency. I was told that there were four tests available to me, SQL 2000 Administration, SQL 2005 Administration, SQL 2000 Programming and SQL 2005 Programming. I wanted to take the two Programming tests, as when I took the Administration tests at another firm, I found the questions seemed to revolve around concepts that were more based on Windows Server stuff than I was used to dealing with. When I logged into take the test, I found that I had to take the tests in order, so I was forced to take all four tests. Fast forward two hours, I have a bit of a head ache, but I'm happy I took all four tests. They had several concepts I hadn't seen before, but most of it was familiar to me. I scored Proficient or Advanced on all the tests.
...

Hmm, I decided to work on something else, and when I do that, I start getting phone calls about positions...guess it's the watched pot idea... Interesting positions, one near home, I'll can't wait to see more about it.
...

Got more information on the position closer to home. Trying to not get excited by positions any more, but looks very interesting, I'll see what they think of my resume.
