I’ve had two interviews so far, and at the moment I have ten more to go, although this number is likely to increase as time goes on.  I had no idea I was going to have so many interviews.  The co-op instructor told us that we should all apply for 50 jobs (the max), and that we would lucky to get a few interviews.  I applied to 40 jobs, and I’ve only heard from slightly over half. So, at this rate, I have more than a 50% interview success rate.  Frankly, it’s irresponsible for the University to tell me that I should have applied for 50 jobs.  I have to skip loads of class to attend these interviews, and I have to go – or else I FAIL.

Anyway, concerning the two interviews I had:

• Ipeak Networks – Very demanding co-op position, but also very interesting.  I would writing low-level code for a cool networking protocol.
• Moxymedia – I’d learn how to build large scale web infrastructure using C#/.NET 3.5.  I think the interview went well, and I think I’d enjoy working there.

I’m glad this week is over.  Now to fix FTH (find the hotties), watch some BSG (battlestar galactica), and do some HW (Homework).
