I just completed an interview this morning with a very large, very respected, and very established leader in the computer industry. In that interview, I finally had an opportunity to apply the knowledge I've steadily gained from Ask The Headhunter.

I'd like to thank you for all your valuable insight. Using your knowledge, I was able to think of several key questions and requests of the interviewer that helped me negotiate a fair salary, and that led to a position proposal by the end of the interview.

Had I not read your columns, I would have probably taken his verbal proposal, left my current position and went to work for him. But as a due diligence move, I requested the proposal in writing so as to not accidentally find myself in a precarious position later on.

Although I'm still undecided as to weather or not to accept the position, I feel as though your insight has helped me handle myself professionally and wisely in the whole process and hope it yields a positive result within the near future.
