Paradigm Shift?
Well, I've been getting a ton of hits from companies (over a hundred hits from two companies in 24 hours) and I'm not so sure how I feel about it right now. I knew I wasn't really hiding my identity, even without mentioning my name, but I might go back and remove some things that narrow it down pretty quickly (like my school). Of course, then date specific events (like an on site interview) also narrow things down quickly.
So, I need to decide if I want to keep doing what I'm doing, or shift to a much more anonymous idea. I'm just worried I might offset a forthcoming opportunity by saying something in this blog.
On the contrary, I have also been emailed specific questions about certain programs (school, internships) that I really like to respond to. I really like to help out others with advice and input.
I guess what I'll do for now is keep doing what I'm doing. I'll be honest and open, but maybe think more carefully about what I post. I suppose if I have something negative to say, I shouldn't really want to pursue a career with that particular company anyway.
On another note, Manchester United just lost to Celtic in a Champions League soccer match. It's a pity, ManU played well, though a little reserved and it killed them in the end :(
