I’m trying to find a getting-a-programming-job LW article I remember reading recently for a friend. I thought it was posted within the last few months, but searching through Discussion I didn’t find it.
The post detailed one LWer’s quest to find a programming job, including how he’d been very thorough preparing for interviews and applying to many positions over a matter of months, finally getting a few offers, playing them off each other, and eventually, I believe, accepting a position at Google.
I think I might have seen that link when googling and skipped it because the title didn’t sound like what I was expecting. After googling didn’t turn up what I was looking for I tried an exhaustive visual search through the last few months of Discussion, but apparently this was in Main. Is there an easy way to browse through the titles of Main articles?
Edit: in fact, my browser history indicates that this was the first link in one of my searches as well. Oops.
