Starting the job search

[dougo]

I am finally getting back into the job market. I've sent my resume to 11 different places so far, but if you know of any interesting places that are hiring, please let me know! Ideally I would like a more research-oriented position, since that's why I got a PhD, but I am keeping a very open mind and considering all opportunities.

I emailed my boss with a link to your resume. We're pretty much a "write software for sale" kind of place, though, so you may want to blow us off. http://www.rocketsoftware.com/category/networks-telecom for the description of the product I work on (NetCure).

So, like, I should also say that I don't actually know if we are hiring. Seems somewhat doubtful, but yesterday there was a big "we're doing great despite the economy" foo-foo-ra at lunch, so who knows.

I just got this in reply to "are we hiring":

"Umm. No. Unless you quit. But, don’t."

So, we're not, and I'm loved. Good for me, indifferent for you, since probably you'd sneer at us anyway.

I have a friend who works here:

He says they are looking for coders but I'm not sure the work would be what you are seeking...let me know if you want me to connect you with him

I'm not sure I want to be that partisan, but, sure, send him my resume.
