No Offer – Interviewed in Plano, TX Mar 2008 – Reviewed Jan 13, 2010
Interview Details – Phone interview focused on current work and possible opportunities at EDS, there was not an open position applied for. Conversation led to a in-person meeting. Once on-site further discussion did not identify a real need for a senior manager at the time but the discussion was extremely positive and professional and seemed a very good fit in the future.
