So I had a job interview today. And- surprise!- I decided to use some of the improv-esque advice that was shared at class last Saturday. Now, I may not be getting the job (although I have a second interview tomorrow) but it sounds like I recruited a handful of audience members. The interviewer asked about hobbies, I told her about The Outtakes, and she started complimenting my delivery in the interview, my ability to weave humor into the conversation, and she asked about times and dates.
So even if I don't get the job, this Saturday I can say that I put two butts in the seats.
Also, if she does come, make sure I'm the funniest up there that night, so I'll for sure get the job. Thanks!

It sounds like you won them over Adam! I'll be in the hot seat this Friday-I'm going to start off with the blues...
I'm sure they'll be REALLY impressed when you get to languages Em. If I were you, I'd close with Samurai. That psychotic look you get on your face suggests "Hire me ... it'll be fun to watch me get stuff out of the vending machines". 185 interviewers walk into the bar ...
I considered dropping a few "Should've saids" at the interviewer, but I think that may have lost me some points. Instead, I just stood up or bent over when she sat down . . .
So Adam and Emily, any job news with your awesome interviews?
Close but no cigar!
Mine also fell short . . . but it led to a different opportunity that I should hear YAY or NAY about by Saturday.
