Have you done a follow up letter or email to him yet?

You may have done better than you think you did.
I know you said that you have to move soon. Have you been looking outside of driving range?

Thank you for your reply! Much appreciated!
It is great that I interviewed with them -- they're where I want to work.
I did send my thank you letter already, and I addressed his concern by saying I consistently study best practices and apply the tested and proven strategies that I've learned.
I did not mention working or learning from a team because they want someone who has proven experience with content creation and content marketing. I can only rely on my past experience, and not experience from my current position (mainly).
So.. either they take a risk and want to proceed, or not. Or there is someone better than me that they will want to hire (usually the case).
What is truly maddening right now is my current role is hindering my progress and success (as mentioned above to darkness). My boss ignores my suggestions around content, as mentioned, and I am not gaining critical experience I need for a job in today's SEO world.
So, the most I can do is tell employers that I've done these things in past jobs.
If I can make it to the next steps in the interview process and win over the team members, I may be able to get the job. I just need to pass with flying colors and get them to love me, somehow!!!
Thank you so much again for all your input on my threads -- it's truly appreciated and it helps to also speak with someone who knows about SEO, too.
