It seems that all the interview recommendations I have read always say to arrive 15 minutes before an interview. I disagree. For example, I had a job interview this afternoon. I decided this morning to take a test drive to the interview site. I am so glad I did!!!! I followed the mapquest instructions and discovered that the road I needed was closed for construction. I then had time to figure out a different way to get to the place. When I got to the place I discovered that there was hardly any parking available. There were apartments nearby that said "Tenant parking only. All others will be towed away." Anyway, I am glad I discovered all these problems this morning and not 15 minutes before my interview. I left early and am so glad I did. A car was just leaving when I pulled up so I was able to get a parking space. If I had not left so early, I probably would have had to drive around for 30 minutes before I found a legal parking spot and then may have had to walk 8-10 blocks in the hot sun.
