What was your first job?

I worked at Fry's Electronics where my main duties were filling 100 feet of shelves with home videos of Titanic and explaining why "widescreen" is better than "fullscreen".

What was your most bizarre interview experience like?

I was interviewing for SBC (now AT&T) and about halfway through I forgot the interviewer's name! I was hoping I'd get a quick peek at her nametag, but it never happened - I think she realized toward the end, she caught me glancing down one too many times. Needless to say I didn't get the job.

How did you find your job at Jobster?

I saw a post on the rails blog saying Jobster needed developers, so I struck up a conversation with one of the devs. It sounded like such a great place to work that I emailed my resume on a long shot - before I knew it, I was moving to Seattle!
