Wow! That's pretty good for this early in the game. Did you have any military time?

If he is from ASA, then it's because he knows "someone".

For job revocation purposes, you're not really hired until your probation is complete. Just sayin'
Why would the company check, or care? Unless you've been bad mouthing the company that you want to go to (which is unlikely), I can't see how you can really be damaged.

No, you are not "cheating" by studying.

My $.02, if you're hearing an interview question for the first time at your ACTUAL interview you are probably at a competitive disadvantage. Most TAAT questions require some fore thought to develop IMHO.

So studying, upgrading, networking, job fairs etc are expected "if you really want the job". However, looking up what's going to happen on interview day is dishonest...

Wow. How did you pull that off? Just curious because it seems like having inside contacts isn't what it once was.

Maybe this person doesn't know what "gouge" is.
Using his definition, interview prep would be considered 'cheating' too; OR, the person is sore because s/he didn't get, find, or use the "gouge".

If you are really worried about what you are saying on the online forum, then maybe the problem lies with what you are posting and not whether someone is reading it.

As far as the information requested and posted already - thanks for sharing.
Obviously a lot of experience out there.
