So whilst I adjust status I can get a tempory work permit..

What length is this for? Can I sign a one year contract? full time?

I've an interview next week for a job in August, and worried there's no point in going. We aim to get married in 2 weeks so I should be eligible for work by June/July..

Cheers

If you get the work permit (by filing with AOS) in June, it is valid until June 2015. By then you will have a greencard so there would be no interruption to your work plans. The EAD (work permit) is also renewable if for some reason the greencard was crazy slow getting approved.
