First Day Rejection | Chris Gammell's Analog Life
http://chrisgammell.com/first-day-rejection
Posted on Feb 17, 2014 2 comments. Well, it’s my first day out on my own and I have already had a rejection. Whee! In reality, it was a contract job that I bid on without too much expectation of getting the work. I definitely was not counting on this work as part of my survival in my new jump to self employment.

I’m in the knowledge business, not the hardware business. Posted on Mar 4, 2014 5 comments. I’m in the knowledge business, not the hardware business. I’m paying way. Too much to get PCBs made. How do I know this? I’ve done it before. I know how many boards I’m making (quite a few! I know the costs. I know the tradeoffs. And not only that, I’ve gotten quotes from China.

Don’t Wait For Permission. Posted on Apr 23, 2014 8 comments. Don’t Wait For Permission. I have corresponded with a international student for a few years now. I honestly can’t even remember how we met online and it doesn’t matter. He showed interest in my work and we started talking and have continued as he has graduated from US university and found a job locally. Recently he asked me:. I don’t like my current job. How can I get a job at Google? I asked him why he wanted to move to Google. High pay?

How to Work a Job Fair as an Engineer. Posted on Sep 30, 2009 3 comments. How to Work a Job Fair as an Engineer. When I write “work a job fair”, I mean how to get the most out of it as a student or job seeker. This could be confused with the fact that I sometimes recruit at job fairs, but I thought this should be brought up at the beginning after I re-read the article.
