What the hell?

eBay

So has the job hunting process for everyone been reduced to a posting on ebay?

Ick.

So even though the fancy company in California recruits 90% of employees by direct referrral (the top 5 'C' level guys are handled differently - headhunters, etc.) which leaves only 5% to filter through the online process...

And even though I made the 'approved' list of 200 resumes (which required essay responses)..
And even though I was included in the 25 person phone screen...
And flown in for final rounds (of which 5 people were invited)...
... I got bumpkis.

Yep. Checked the email and I got the ding.

Oh, so poetic was the hr crony. (OK, not really.) But moving is not a consideration in the near future. But money sure is! Ick again. So I'll be around trying to peddle my wares and assorted services:) But not on eBay.

And certainly not with a blinking banner.
(*shudder* I was looking for some books on mba programs and happyjoy, I found a handful of the desperately unemployed who are neither clever, witty or exceptionally talented in html. )
