Of COURSE it’s already filled
I’ve been looking at internal job listings. I just reread one that I had flagged over the weekend. I don’t know why it didn’t catch my eye the first time…
A great deal of prototyping, dealing with multiple hardware architectures, managed and unmanaged cross machine communication… Seemed rather neat.
I emailed the manager for an informational interview, to find out what they’re doing. As I was writing the email, I realized I was actually a rather good candidate for the position.
Five minutes later, I got a reply — the position had been filled a few weeks ago.
Of course.
