Applyall.com is a good option for you, too. I feel like the longer you're out of the interview game, the more you need to get back into the flow of interviewing / talking to new options.


This is awesome, I love seeing news like this. Well, let me clarify -- the shootings aren't awesome but the way that the guy pieced it together on Reddit is super cool. Amazing.


I agree. I'm also surprised at how some of them are freaking out and deleting their tweets. I hope a side benefit of this is some awareness that social networks are not some kind of cosy, private club.


I hope they don't realize this at all...


Hey, if we can add personality to the ad industry then anyone can do it. I personally think that a lot of people devalue what helping people have a little more fun can add to a product and many are scared that fun/personable = unprofessional, which isn't the case.

I think another awesome example of a product having some personality is HipChat -- they're all over. They're a goofy and fun group of guys and they have built a product that reflects that.

All you need to do is look at either their Easter egg emoticons (http://www.quora.com/What-are-all-of-the-hidden-emoticons-on...) or the billboard that they had on 101 (http://techcrunch.com/2011/04/22/y-u-no-have-lame-billboard-...) and you can tell that they have personality literally oozing out of their product. Yeah, I said "oozing".


So true. Hipchat has been great about adding quirky little bits to their product. You might not like their Y U NO billboard but it's definitely got personality.
