Friday morning: Candidate showcases

Oh my back!!!  4 1/2 hours of interviews, standing up, reading the same set of questions to 13 different ID candidates (and four 2VP candidates), while making it sound fresh and exciting every time!  At least there was a short break in the middle; the first version of the schedule had NO breaks at all from 8 AM to almost noon.

It was very interesting hearing what the candidates had to say, of course, but by necessity, I’ll keep my opinions on those to myself.  Some were clearly a little confused by the question, but I could not do anything to help them understand it — just repeat the question verbatim.

Being on the other end of these questions next year will certainly be interesting!
