Unsurprisingly, I have the proofreading gig, at least provisionally.
That is, I go out to Port Washington tomorrow morning (to arrive between ten and 10:30), and assuming I don't do anything horribly wrong, and that I can tolerate them and the commute, this could run for several months.
The "interview" itself consisted of filling out some forms, taking a proofreading test, watching a video about the agency, and talking again by phone to Helaina, who was my original contact there, to sort out the logistics. This suits me: I work, and test, better than I interview. Helaina wasn't sure when the client needed me there, so agreed to call me back on my mobile phone; she caught me at the supermarket, but fortunately, I was looking idly at a display of yogurt, not talking to anyone, when the phone rang.
The work won't be exciting, but neither do I expect it to be physically or mentally painful.
