Riddler, did you have your separation date in writing before you got the interview with CAL?

My date is up in the air by about 4-6 months right now, its a moving window between April and September of 08, although I should have a solid date in another month or so.

Its my understanding that you need a solid availability date before you can get an interview, since they likely don't want to waste time interviewing a guy who then chooses to stay in, or interview a guy who isn't available for another year or more.
