Was he interested in me and did I screw something up or maybe he was just being friendly?

While I am walking to sit down, I catch this guy staring at me. He does not look away once I catch him. He was on the computer doing his work, but once I came in, he was looking at me. I remember talking to my friend, who was with me, about a job interview next week. After about 30 minutes, I look his way and he is looking at me. Later, I go near his area by myself and he initiates a conversation for about 10 minutes with me. He asks me how I am preparing for my job interview next week (I was surprised that he took notice of my conversation with my friend and how he knew I was interviewing for a job). He tells me about how he has also been interviewing for a job and how it has been tough. He goes back to doing his work on the computer and I take that as a signal that the conversation has ended. I ask the person next to him if it is okay that I gather my stuff to leave because she was using my computer. The guy I was talking to does this little laugh at me and continues working on his computer. The lady gives me back my computer and I end up leaving. While I am leaving he tells me good luck. I say thanks, you too. Then he says thanks. I literally got mixed signals on whether or not he was interested in me? Was he interested in me and did I screw something up or maybe he was just being friendly?
