These headhunters...

Oh boy
Some of these are worse than car salesmen
Specially this lady -SG.

Every time I bring up the name of a company I am talking to - without her help
All she has to say is- Oh that company sucks

Well, S:
I am not as naive as I seem to be
I appreciate that you have a living to make and in a way is related to how and where I make the selection. But puh-lease - don't be so naive yourself to think that I would be so naive to shut down my grey cells and look for your advice at all

Meeting K was quite refreshing.
She was awesome !!!
Helpful. Genuine. She earned my respect for her- in the first call.

The hunting season is open

Two Phone interviews
One Personal lined up
Another phone interview scheduled

Hmmmm
So this is how it is...

Appearing for an interview after a gap of 6 years was a bit un-nerving
The first one with TA could have gone much better if that had not been my first interview

Anyways- it is what it is

Second one went much better and I am now scheduled for a personal interview next week

I am not sure if I am going to take the offer if it ever comes- but at this point -= I want as much exposure to interviews as possible so i can smoothen up my rough edges

Hi I am looking for an open positon. You got any for me ?

So - here it goes...
I have taken the plunge

Sent my resume across to handful of people and will be sending to more this weekend

Met a recruiter in person as well
I think I am going to decline further requests for such meetings in person- they consume way too much time- Lets see...

Sigh I have already started fantasizing how I will break the news to my Manager
oh boy. I know this is kiddish- but somehow propels me
