You ever interview for a job....

Do really well in the interview, impress the hell outta everyone only to not get the job? I had one of those....apparently I wasn't 'geeky' enough. That was the down low from someone on the inside. The director sat for four extra days trying to come to a decision and went with the geeky guy.

Six months later I see this:

POSITION ANNOUNCEMENT:

#18 E114 AssocDirFinaid.SS 2'08

Associate Director Financial Aid - Data Systems

 

A posting for the same position at the same school with the same responsibilities. Guess the geeky guy wasn't the right choice.

Didn't you mention you belong to 2o2p with a user name of Ewok Poacher ? :) That right there should have been enough to prove your geekness.

Send a note to the director, mention the want ad and tell him you are still available at only 10% more than what you were asking for before.
