one day, he'll stop yammering about this job application thing

[alexr_rwx]

Okay, the whole google application thing is now out of my hands; they've got eight interviews, an updated transcript, my fresh-off-the-pdflatex resume/CV/thing, and everything that the entire internet has ever known about me. That was pretty lengthy. I'll have a Final Answer next week, apparently. My recruiter, who's been super-nice this whole time, says prospects are very good, having gotten this far (past the NYC committee, now the executive dudes in California have to decide), but I want to be more like "pleasantly surprised" if it works out instead of Pretty Disappointed if it doesn't... I ordered a Dinosaur Comics shirt to pseudo-celebrate, the "Professor Science" one.

I'ma go apply for some other jobs, just in case.

Oh, I suppose I should be doing work for that whole "still a gradstudent" thing too, huh?

The sault-man cometh, tomorrow. w00t :)

8 Interviews? Jeepers. I would have bailed out long before then.

Good luck, still!

They were all fun, it turns out :)

Except that last weird one, where the guy asked me about project-management and disagreements with coworkers! That was surprising and unnerving!

And thank'y kindly!

It was? Really?

Wow. I sort of remember academia.
