You do not have to wait, and you do not need to get permission in order to answer the interview questions.. and post your post in this thread.
Well, that's not what OP says. Unless something changed in the meantime and its free for all now.
If you yourself want to give an interview, write to me in PM
Nobody reads on this forum anymore. I swear, it must have something to do with so much screen time shortening our attention spans, because I've found myself to be a victim of it as well (though I try to read as much of a thread as I can before I respond).
I don't know about the others, but I was reading each and every interview while there was some selection and only people with some history (like you) here had the privilege to give answers
That eventually changed when we got bunch of pretty much unknown members joining and I honestly didn't care to find more about someone I didn't even know exists on forum before and whom I never exchanged a single sentence so I eventually stopped checking this thread.
