Interview Today!
I have an interview today at SRI International, up in Menlo Park, for a job as a GIS Technician.
Of the ten items listed under "Experience" in the job requirements:
I am hoping that the quality of my in-depth experience ("Yes, I did that at NASA"), and my eagerness to get more experience in the other points, will overcome the more dubious qualifications I may have.
Wishes of luck are appreciated, but we're past the point of random fortune: skill and poise will see me through this.
Of the ten items listed under "Experience" in the job requirements:
- I am solidly confident in my abilities in four.
- I have brief, passing experience in four more ("I have opened and modified files in this software").
- I have only theoretical experience in the remaining two ("I learned how to use the DOS version of software in this general category in the early '90s, and I have a book about more recent versions that I've flipped through.").
