How might I present my ongoing search for a satisfying career as a positive and not an inability to commit? I have an interview for a position I don't know that much about except that it would be for a great company. My anxiety arises when they ask about my work history. It is all over the place.

Is layed back better or worse than super upbeat friendly? You just never know what little insubstantial things will turn someone off especially over the phone. Am I being neurotic?

Would it be worth my time to try and get some type of computer certification? Or would I be totally lost without a background in it. Thanks.

Does "Posterwall.com" domain name work for a career/work/employment/job-search website.? This question is best answered by a native US English speaking person. I am setting up a career/work/employment/ job-search website and am considering using the domain name posterwall.com. Good domains are hard to come by. Question is what you think about when you hear "Posterwall.com". The idea is that Posterwall.com can refer to a wall where "Help wanted" and "Need job" notes are posted, like in a public requitement office etc. But if Posterwall.com just sounds weird to native US English speakers, off the mark, strange and definitely not appropriate for such I site I would like to much know it before I buy the domain name. So what do you think of the domain posterwall.com for a job search site site? Thanks. There is nothing on this site now but the URL will look like this: http://www.posterwall.com
