Super. > Why, would you like a copy of my resume? ;-) Well, at the moment we're not hiring due to a lack of having much excess money around :-), but of course that could change by next winter. I'm just a regular engineer (not a managerial type), but I could certainly see that your resume made it into the right hands. Truth be told, by next winter if things go well it'll probably be more software & FPGA (& maybe DSP) people we'll need anyway than circuit designers. Oh, and there's a side project for IT people that might get funded, but I mean, who wants to sit around all day configuring SSH and VPNs and whatnot? What kind of work do you expect you'll be looking for anyway? The first job I took out of college was your generic microcontroller board hardware design & programming one, and in retrospect I should have spent more time looking for a job doing something closer to analog or RF design -- what I really *wanted* to do -- rather than just taking the first one that I was offered and reasonably qualified for. ---Joel
From: Joel Koltner on 19 Feb 2010 13:45 Oh, hey, one thing you should do when you get serious about looking for jobs next year -- stick your resume up on your web site (and of course stick the URL on your resume for when you hand out printed copies). Your web site demonstrates a very impressive set of skills, and since I suspect your web site gets a fair amount of traffic, I also suspect you'd find a lot of people who'd be interested in hiring you.

My mother didn't have a washer & dryer until I was about 6, so I do have many early memories of accompanying her off to the laundromat... my brother and I would spend out time looking for loose change people had dropped, and (at least as a kid) it was truly amazing just how much there was to find. Oh, and it was next door to a donut shop... :-) I can't even imagine having to do laundry by hand these days! Especially when, after getting married, the amount of laundry done per week has increased by, um, about 5x... :-) ---Joel

There was a dry cleaner where they also did laundry but that was way out of league for a student on a $300/mo budget. > Oh, and it was next door to a donut shop... :-) > > I can't even imagine having to do laundry by hand these days!

The detergents were rationed; however laundry wasn't a big problem since there was not too many things to clean. VLV |
