昨天去WESLEY面试,CFO一关还可以,CEO那一关有点怪,大部分是fit 问题。 不过还有一轮。 而且他们不想在类似行业找人。很有创新。

今天面试AMAZON,感觉很好,但是职位偏低。而且很远。不过可以混混。

下午收到safenet的headhunter电话。职位重新open。 星期一要面试,好远啊。。2钟头单程。
工资还可以,和以前的一样。

I sent an email to Paul in TD Bank on last Wed and hear nothing back. It seems that it is not good..
Called Jackie about positions in Peco and ACE. Hope will get some connections.

ACE contract position is on hold since Lacey is out of town.

Will go to the Wesley CFO position o Thursday. Not sure how I can impress them

Jackie told that TD is interested in next interview and one more possible fit.
Also a contractor position in Ace Insurance.
Hope it will land me a job.

昨天BW面试,很不fit。一股狂热的“批评与自我批评”的气氛,让我觉得到了文化大革命的感觉。或是“fix your soul"..

开了一天车,累死了。

今天一大早知道了ballard的噩耗。 1. 没有prof service的经验。 2. 用了很多jargon??
3. 没有“make point crossed"...

今天ballard面试,感觉一般,普通的manager职位,没什么大意思,老板也比较picky。
当面说前任的是非。结果我只有40分钟发挥。
问得很细致。

今天完成了BW的测试, team profile 是 refiner。 BM估计是supervisor。

下午和Robin 谈了谈 match.com一个director的职位,看上去还不错。
就是有点低。而且在dallas,TX。
先看看人家感不感兴趣。

另一个non for profit的CFO倒是出奇的高。。。
这年头,搞不懂。

Talked with CFO-retail banking of TD Bank today. Great opportunity with managing over 10 people. Hope this could fly.

Got confirmation from BridgeWater for Wed interview at 12PM. But they do not provide accommodation for Tuesday. Weird.

Stupid Recruiter

Talked with John from AI today about two higher positions in TD Bank. Even I told him multiple times that he should not disclose my salary to company HR first, he still did so. Stupid A******.

Heard from BridgeWater about next round and possible other positions too.

No news from Chase Card and IB side.

Good news from consulting firm and waiting the contract to be signed.

My Job Search

Feb 22, 2010,
Called Jim about Sr Strategy Analyst in Amtrak. Not sure if they are interested or not.

Feb 23, 2010,
Call Erim Mcroberts for consulting positions. I think it went well. Major concern is travel.

Feb 24, 2010
Reschedule JPM IB position to Feb 25. Had an interview with Tom in Lincoln Financial Group. Did not meet Cindy Zhao. I think it went well except the pay scale is too low.

Feb 25, 2010
Talked with Mercedes Diaz in JPM. Everything is fine but her requirement is very specific in elimination entity. I am not sure if they are interested or not.
Also heard the bad news that Lincoln is not interested in next round. This is quite weird since I think they are interested in me and told me they will not make any decision till Mar 2.

Feb 26, 2010
Talked with Jinny Choi in Bridgewater. I think I am overqualified and she might refer me for other positions as well.

Mar 1, 2010
Meet the OB in the morning.
Reschedule the meeting with Gina in Bald.
Had lunch with Don and it is really good. Chenfeng actually knows Mercedes in IB. I should ask about this before the interview.
Get connected with Pam again and she will check with a hiring manager on Wed.

Mar 2, 2010
Interview with Gina on a lot of behavior/experience questions. I think it should be ok.
