MY STRATEGY works somewhat? but is old and dusty.
old and dusty warning and YMWV - mileage will vary.
-1.) It has nothing to do with your willpower or even your
skillsets.
0.) the key strategy is rule out - some big companies,
even stingy and the case of CIO chef info officer is clueless - AVOID THEM like the plague. U get a great job.
affter change of bosses - once every 9 months for 3 years;
you get 'fired' and put on the blacklist.
IT IS A DEAD END.
1.) it's all about MBA work, screening and positioning.
get to know the rankings of the S&P 500 rank listing well.
this is ONLY a template and guide. oh by the way,
over 51 + 7 years of experience; various fields, and some
odd experiences.
4.) before I get to the GOOD SEXY FREE MILLIONAIRE STUFF,
figure out how to crash the local conferences/convensions.
Yes, pay off the low part time work who moved goods. I am
a substitute.
get the business card. say NADADADA! research the hell out
of them. then it is mano a mano. eyeball to eyeball.
i know u need this. this is what your competitors know
here a ANONYMOUS QUOTE.
oh, no i am not a journalist. media, lawyer, stranger,
etc etc. U R DOING THEM A FAVOR.
5.) ask reasonable questions. no i dont need the money
but i really love programming / s?redacted? x, etc etc
6.) remember the obscure system engineer who does unix
or the assoc vp does not want a referral free. Grass is
always greener on the other side.
7.) it's just me but five dimensional programming code
on an origama (YES I AM ASIAN) ORIGAMA ball /can be be fun.
and a nice prop. wave it around like a big CIGAR.
8.) most of the workplace have the 'hacks'; unix engineers
like i former trying to become a database engineer consult
etc. cold mail and cold call - is fine, but the wall
street method rule applies - 250 dials a day. 4 days a
wekk on various times. wt ???? 250??? is a lot.
note - this is dials and yes i have done freelance 'boiler
room similar looking like work' - i am not a stock broker
film db BOILER ROOM !! yeahhhh baaaabbyy
9.) the MEAT the millionaire the sexy the GOOD STUFF.
please delete this comment. or the censors may take it out.
ok with me.
here it is......
the Rotary Club works on a non-compete, diversified
P2P network. ROTARY CLUB. non-compete since only
one real estate agent in any one circle.
THE SCENARIO:
my good 'friend' and associate REAL ESTATE AGENT or fill in
blank spends a lot of time in the WOMAN CLUB. So, the
wife of the VP of the data center mentions how ASTOUNDING
is this person.
the VP, is a man married and will give you at least a courtesy interview. Provide value, turn down 20% of the
jobs.. shadddde the truth???? but
i have read at least 20 of the top books. compiled linux
kernel,blah blah learn a new language Haskell with succky
books so the problems are NEVER technical or delivery.
it has only to do with some clueless CIOsss who barely
passed certification Micosoft exams.
sorry, no person offense meant.
IT HAS ONLY at least in USA, to do with some
system engineer who WANTS U DESPERATELY but has a
outsource contract with a guy who cannot understand
code comments in ENGLISH or deal with HR where
talent TALENT talent is a priority.
and of course, U are DOOMED. sorry to say.
the extra income and part time jobs / health benefits /
DESTRUCTION OF THE USA MIDDLE CLASS continues!
PS. full time -?? been there, done tthat kinda.
i always allocate at least 10% to make boss look good;
frills and bells; make the code look pretty and beautiful;
and othher WORTHLESS GARBAGE. this is called the hidden
tax.
also, 20% for learning and at least finding HOLES IN THE
COMPANY SOFTWARE. logic flaws, security flaws, bad code,
bad process, bad procedures, bad SQL, bad db architecture,
warninggg! this can be dangerous. doing the job of the cluelesss CIO chief inof officer can lead to BLACKLIST.
does tthzyat help?
