Got a 2nd interview with a PLC tomorrow.

However, since 1st interview, share price has dropped more than 10%. Mainly yesterday!

Do i panic or is this just part of the fun?

Surely folks who actually work for PLCs see this all the time?

The markets took a hit yesterday and any plc's share price will follow suit. The plc I work for announced there interim figures recently and the share price barely moved.

I've just looked at our share price over the past year and overlayed the FTSE 250 index and we are more or less correlated to the index. Maybe you should do the same, it's easy to do using the FT web site.

Ok, thanks - will do. When i had the 1st interview, their share price that very day was the highest it had been over the past 12 months - so perhaps a little bit too good to use as a benchmark.
