EA to lay off 1500 people and to close studios

I was laid off on 9-11-01. It sucks but as the saying goes, "One door closes and another one opens." That process sucks but it's true. I learned to network my ass off afterwards as you never know. Sign up for linkedin.com

 

yup... i was laid off in 2002 before i got the job at EA. the process sucks, but something great will eventually come along.

i am on linkedin

 

well... i just had another phone interview for a position at Netdevil. I spoke with the senior technical director for about 30 minutes and the interview went very well. some of the job requires skills that i can do in my sleep and other parts of the job will be very challenging.

for the next step, they are going to fly me out to Colorado next week for an in-person interview. man... i am both excited and nervous

more woot....

 

Very nice sir!!

 

good times. will this mean relocation?

 

yup... i think i will enjoy colorado

 

great luck to you!! bonus...get a new job, AND get to leave california!!! two birds...one stone.

 

Congrats sir. That is awesome they are willing to fly you out there for the job interview

 

sucks man stay strong all of tw im sure is pullin for u and ur wife

 

well... the in-person interview was post-poned for a week, so i fly out to colorado tomorrow morning for a monday afternoon interview. they put me up in a hotel in Broomfield and the company is in Louisville (i really dont know the area).

my wife and i are getting really excited about the chance to move to CO. what are some good cities to live in around there? there is Boulder, but isnt that a college town? someone mentioned that Broomfield or Westminster are good cities. any other suggestions?

man, i had to survive a whole extra week of being excited and waiting for this interview

 

congrats! best of luck to you!

 

dude, thats awesome. i'd give my left nut (the smaller one) to move somewhere like that. you'll have to deal with a shit load of dirty hippies but its better than teh fools that live in CA.

 

so i had the interview today...

and....


HOLY SHIT !!
I GOT THE JOB !!!!

the CTO/hiring manager was really impressed with me and he said that he wanted to make an offer for me to come work there.

so the next step is to get the offer letter from their HR department.

woot!!! colorado, here i come !!
