  • Fair enough. I did some of that, too, but was a bit puzzled by the way you put it above. Just remember that you'll get the loan paid off faster by working for free over the summer, if need be, to make connections than delivering pizza to pay the interest.

        • GAH!!!! The waiting is killing me! No one has called back, so I called everyone today. Still no news. At least that isn't a rejection.

            • Well, I heard from the totally sweet job today. I'm still the only person on their radar . . . but, they still aren't sure when they can bring me on or if they will.

                If they don't want to hire somebody then why are they interviewing?

                • Yeah, it's frustrating.

                    After the staff cuts are complete and the newly reduced benefits packages have been rolled out, the HR staff desperately needs to appear productive and "proactive."

                    Lest they become the next targets.

                    • I believe that 70% of HR's job is to justify their existence to the rest of the company. Here's a little experiment; walk through the HR department and in a low tonal voice say "outsourcing" a couple of times. Not so loud that you come off as a dick, but loud enough that you can be "overheard". Comeback 30 minutes later and gauge what they are talking about.

                      • A little weirdly, it's just now that the interview requests are rolling in. Freddie Mac on Tuesday, General Electric yesterday and Northrop Grumman today.

                        • What the F*CK, Freddie Mac. You send me an application form to fill out, in PDF. But the fields can't actually be filled out, it has to be printed and faxed. Please join the rest of us in the twenty-first century.
