yes, I think you can. you can put your luggage in the interview waiting room, or at the corner of conference room. also, I would ask the coordintor about that.

but it is advisable to have a good-looking quite new one, with small rollers on the bottom.

This is what I thought.

You can always ask to leave your luggage at the front desk of the hotel. Or ask if they offer any kind of storage.

YOu can buy a device at wallmart for 10 dollars .It can suck the air out of your suit case and make it of the size of a matchbox .Then you can leave the matchbox on the desk of the Program coordinator.

Unfortunately there is no device as yet to get the suitcase back to its original size.

I cannot see anything wrong with that. you can keep it somewhere in the hospital. everyone knows your conditions.

Don't be too fussy.

This ranks up there with the posts about what kind of purse, briefcase, etc. It's so minor.

Do you think that you would be the first person to come in with a suitcase? Nope, you won't be. Don't worry about it. If you have it with you, we'll find a place to put it. I'll tease you that you are "moving in" - but it's not a big deal.

If you get teased about moving in, the best reponse would be along the lines of..."yes - I just cant wait to get started!" smiling face

I have recently bought an air mattress with a mighty powerful air pump .On the morning of the interview I will be found asleep on this mattress placed in Program co-ordinators office.I will make sure that I don my suit before going to the bed so that I am in proper attire when I am discovered .

BBB-there will be no question of teasing me as i will have already moved in .

PS-the mattress will be inflated (of course).
