I never heard of Egelnick&Webb. Once again I'm am absolutely gobsmacked by the sheer amount of top-quality level design companies that exist at the moment. Their works looks really nice and what a great client list.
As for getting pissed off... yeah, it happens, but make sure you don't convey that in your meeting in any way. better to seem in demand than ground down by a fruitless slog. When I was designing, I used to spend the night before an interview doing something completely new and self-initiated in a sketch book. I'd always explain that I'd done it the previous night and why (specifically for the purposes of having something totally new and previosuly unseen to show in the meeting). I'd whack it out near the beginning and it just seemed to be a good 'lift' to a portfolio that I had grown tired of going through. Also, if you're a bit bored of your folder by now then re-order the projects and don't spend too long looking it through it in the new order, so that it hasd a bit of a surprise element for you as well as them.Those were my tricks anyhoo.
Hope it goes well Ben!
