The job itself is on the other side of the country but they offered me an interview two days after I sent my application so I'm hopeful it'll work out

It's an online interview.

Another one is cross country (east instead of north) and I'll be taking two days off work

It went well, is my gut feeling. I'll get feedback next week and if I was successful they want me to come visit them and see where I'll be working

Dude good luck, and I put emphasis on the Luck part especially if its a high paying career with great benefits. Basically you're hoping you're getting interview at the right place at the right time and have all the things they're looking for this position.

Good luck mang. Interviews are stressful, so if you can walk away thinking it went well, that's a plus.

The director asked me how much I'd want and I gave my figure, which was 58k. His immediate remark: "why 58k? Why not 60k?"

He meant it sincerely, as in "you're worth more than 58k"

Also, they want me to come visit them! By next week Thursday I'd have to get back to them and decide if I'm still interested in the position (spoilers: I am) and then we'll plan the visit

Eh. I've trusted my gut plenty of times and have been rejected.

I've only had 2 full time offers in my life. One was for my teaching position (which I didn't even have a license for at the time), and the other was for a junior technical writer job but I had to decline because my whole family got cancer all at once and I was emotionally wrecked and it would have required moving to Fairfax, VA.

i didnt say your gut was always right...but you still gotta trust it

also realize that there's a lot going on behind the scenes you're not privy to...just because you had a great interview doesn't mean you'll always get the job

i had an interview last year that i thought went amazing. they didn't even do a reference check so i was confused. 4 months later, after they officially got the paperwork done on their new hire, they called me to tell me i did amazing but the other guy literally invented the program they use. but the manager wanted me to apply for another position in his division and he'd put in a good word for me. that's the job i have now
