Career Update
Well, it’s been a busy week! I got a call from Binder and I’m going back to see them this afternoon. This will be a grueling three interview application triathlon. First, I meet with R.’s boss, the Director of Network Engineers (not her real title). Then, I meet with a Regional Director of Sales, and after that, I meet with a guy who already does what they’re considering me for, Network Engineer (also, not the real title. Notice a theme here?). We’ll see how it goes. If they’re all as laid back as R. then I’ll have a hard time not liking the position. Of course, I’m getting a little ahead of myself and assuming that they’re going to make me an offer. For all I know, that last personality test tells them that I’m some nut that pours out his thoughts into a web page!
I also got a call from T. at Discovery Über Technology, who had a position at an undisclosed medical company that sounded like it was right up my alley. She said she was going to call back this morning, but I have yet to hear from her. I’ll no doubt leave her a message this evening after I’m done at Binder. The position sounds about like what I’ve been doing, but in a totally different industry. It could be interesting.
I’m also hoping to hear something from the WacoSyndicate, about a position that D. hinted at there. She told me about a company that is hiring not only Network Engineers, but a Network Manager of some kind. It sounded interesting. It’s a little more management than I’ve done before, but it could be that next step I’m looking to take next. I’ll have to give her a call on Monday and see what’s happening there.
