Regarding my interview yesterday: I just got an email!

[Blue-Jay]

I think that I stuck the dismount. I sent the boss an email, thanking her and the other guy for taking the time to speak with me. She replied. Here's a slightly edited version:

"Good Evening Blue-Jay (yea, it is after 5pm!):

Allow me to concur - I too sincerely enjoyed meeting you. (Big Boss) and I play very well off each other and I am thrilled that this is conveyed to prospects and our staff in general!

I too hate the "overqualified" term; I have heard it many times and that was also a concern of (company name)'s regarding ME personally. I have 20 years experience in assn mgmt, most recently was an Associate Executive Director of Membership & Operations - so they too were concern about me taking a position which I am massively overqualified to perform. I shared with then they should consider themselves "lucky" to have me(ha-ha!).......I will keep this in mind and "thwart" any attempts by (company name) to consider you in the same light! (emphasis added)

I concur Blue-Jay - you would be a very good fit for (company name); let's see how we can make that happen.

I will speak with you soon - I am now brain dead and have to go
home(Yahoo!).

Warmest Regards,
(Boss-Lady)"

I met a lot of (hopefully) future coworkers yesterday. I liked them. I also like that the company is about a block from the train station.

What's even better is that she is friends with the HR director at the place *I* have wanted to work for the past few years. If it all goes well, we commute downtown and have lunch together. :-)
