TVSG"Well all my interviews deal with connecting with the interviewer which is why that question never came up."
Until you have a job, you didn't connect. Interview small talk is meaningless except for the person hired. Whether the interview was friendly or involved some contenious moments is meaningless except for the person hired.
My last interview which was informational, was a connection because he is now apart of my network on linkedin after our 55 minute interview. So yes we did connect with each other.
First interview....:was a part-time job which she felt I wouldn't be around long enough for because she felt I was young and employable so she gave my resume to someone else in the company
Second Interview...was with the guy who received my resume from the lady who interviewed me for the part-time job and he called me for a networking interview. we talked for 55 mins and he is now a connection on Linkedin
So yes I am 2-0 in making a GOOD FIRST IMPRESSION.
Have fun paying your rent with that first impression.
I don't have to worry about being asked that question because I have ways of letting the interviewer do most of the talking which has been a success so far
If it had been a success you'd have a job right now!

Didn't you just say that you have to use your network to get a job? Now you are saying networking is not a good thing when you just told someone yesterday you have to use your network? So explain to me what you were saying again about networking?
Back to your original point that you don't have to explain to them if they ask what you have been doing since you left your job...
google this question.
Many, many pages come up with many answers.
If they ask you tomorrow, be prepared. Have something to say. Don't storm out and get all huffy because you think they have no reason to ask it.
Why must you insist they shouldn't ask you this?
Because if you see a pleasant looking well dressed attractive person for the first time, most people won't care what you been doing since your last job. They will just be glad they have the opportunity to add you to their team.
Same thing with a date, if you see someone who is happy and attractive you won't care why they are single just that you have a opportunity to be with them.

Okay, if you want to think so. I just googled this issue and found pages and pages disproving your theory but if you want to believe what you want to believe, I am not going to try to help change your mind.
Networking success. Both are now part of my network.
Uh huh. And what are you doing with that network that is going to land you a job. You can know 1000 people but if you are passive about it, it means nothing.
