I have been out of school now for about four months, and I have been trying to find a full-time job. That infamous question rekindles in my brain, “What do you want to be when you grow up?”
A fireman, an astronaut, or a web developer? I would definitely pick the third choice. It seems that our world is changing so much that there are new job opportunities than ever for hypertext authors. As a wise professor once said, “The old media will never catch up.”
I have scored an interview with CNET Networks, the pioneers of the first dot-com boom of the late 90s.
The position is for Associate Web Producer, the same position I held as an intern at ESPN.com this summer.
I have never been to San Francisco, but I am hearing a lot of nice things about the city. I know for a fact that the Tech community is robust though. Leo LaPorte lives there, Google’s backyard buzzes from the server farms, and Apple’s Cupertino headquarters is the factory of personal computing innovation.
I will keep you posted on what happens.
