Apple today confirm the release of Panther and updated their website with lots of goodies outlining the many features of the updated OS. Today also saw the release of updates to iCal and iSync, which reminds me I must tidy up both my Address Book and Calendars sometime.
I've spent this evening pruning down my jobs by emails from the various online careers directories (see left). I had several automated searches producing daily emails from various directories, but the search criteria were producing significantly overlapping emails which inevitably lead to reading fatigue and eventually laziness. By re-defining the criteria and limiting each website to a single email I should be able to more effectively discover appropriate jobs as they are advertised, without getting overwhelmed with 10+ emails (some with over 100 jobs a day, and most of those were re-posted rather than newly posted). Well that was a boring paragraph wasn't it? Ho Hum.
I've sent another email to Customer Systems to find out why the hell I haven't heard anything about my application since mid-August. Some of these companies are foolish in the way they treat applicants, they must have little regard for the power of word-of-mouth. If by tomorrow lunch I haven't heard back from MyEmployer with regards my Interview on Monday just gone I'll be getting in touch with them too. But I'm not agro with them, I'm just impatient! I'm really banking on this job to come up trumps, I'd be gutted if it don't get the chance to have an office interview.
In linkage news, I've added links to uni buddies Barney, BBF & Adam. I've also uploaded my MSc module in Multimedia Systems coursework: Video Applications over 3G Networks, which I used to wow NEC in my interview and will be the ace up my sleeve for the MyEmployer interview (fingers crossed).
I've got another 5-a-side footy game lined up with Si and his buddies tomorrow night and I'm waiting with baited breath to see if I'll get a game with the UniS Oldboys on Saturday.
