Over the last month, I've been off and on searching for a replacement
gig.
I've sent maybe 12 responses to job postings, though to be honest,
haven't spent much time mapping the cover letter to the
requirements...except for one that I sent out on the 18th of last
month.
Guess which one was the only that called? Called yesterday asking me
to come in for an interview next Wed.
