There must have been a reason this old thread was revived.

Unfortunately, by the time NC rolled around, I was no longer an FD. My second recruit never qualified (mental illness literally).

I have had some glimmers of interest, but no interviews. Then, yesterday, at a show, I met someone who is interested enough to schedule an interview! We're talking next week!

So, thanks so much for reviving this thread!
