Default Re: Welcome .....

That could start an entire thread. You get some feeling of how he will treat you by the interview. His arb background. Credentials and education. Ask about fellow employees and listen to his attitude. How he feels about trees intrinsically. Where he sees his op going and what potential you have to be part of it. Is he a heavy drinker. Combine that with the stress of ownership and you may have a Dr. Jeckel and Mr. Hyde in front of you. But again don't let him think you are directing the interview or he may feel threatened. Just find stuff out while making him think you are picturing yourself as an asset to his company. Let him think you have other poss options though.

Hope that helps a little. Right now here it is the employee's market. By December it will be the employer's market. Sometimes you just gotta get to work and better employment can be sought while on a lesser job.
