Unemployment - Day 02

I was hoping for 3 interviews per day, but one is better than none :)

Today I hit monster.com
I only have two major complaints...

  1. I don't have any student loans that need to be refinanced! I would appreciate it if your interstitials for that purpose would NOT come pre-populated with my personal info. Would it be to much to ask that you make the ads look less like the monster.com css? I imagine that these ad units are only successful because most people don't pay attention.
  2. Dynamic Links make it difficult to quickly determine if you already clicked on a job detail. Every time I change a filter - all the old links look new again. I (inadvertently) went through the whole application process and only at the last possible moment did monster.com tell me that I already applied for that job. D'oH!
    Dice on the other hand uses the same links and hotjobs prints "Resume Sent MM/DD/YYYY" in the summary.

Yes, I know - Saturday and Sunday would be days 2 and 3, making today day 4. But I'm talking normal work days
You say "but you normally work Saturdays"
Well, Um... I'm counting "full bank workdays". that's a benefit to being unemployed - you make your own rules as you go along :-P

Tomorrow's looking good. Phone interview at 9am
