The Job Hunt
So Microsoft doesn’t seem to want to hire me, which is quite a shame. I still have a bazillion second and first round interviews to go to though, so it’s no great loss. The unfortunate thing, though, is that I’m so busy that all this recruiting stuff is hard to fit in, very stressful, and causes me to not sleep. Because I don’t get enough sleep, how can I do well at anything? Sleep is my ultimate goal. Well, penultimate. I think there are some people who are worth not sleeping for.
Update #1:
In addition to numerous second round interviews forthcoming, I just got an offer from a giant iBanking firm in NYC. Things are looking quite good.

Elliot … hope all works out on the job front. And that your penultimate goal becomes reality. I’d like a few hours of sleep extra a day, it’s not a bad dream

Cheers on the blog too.
