I wish reading the future was easy. Right now with K interviewing at many job places, it's a pain to wait and see which one will work out. Or how the rest of things will work themselves out. We have had some updates so our future isn't entirely unknown. For a while though it was, and it was killing me and him. A few weeks back K had gone up to Hill AFB to interview and it went great. However, all they told him was he would find out in November if he made it. This could be November 1 or November 30th. K also applied to Google.
He made it to the 2nd round of interviews after some hard phone interviews. Google paid for him to fly up and stay in San Jose. It was a "college day" so many students actually were there too for these all day interviews. Most people were from large and presitgous colleges. Stanford, Purdue, Carnegie-Mellon. When K introduced himself and said that he was from UNLV one person didn't even know that it existed. After intros he had interviews with Googlers. These were harder than the phone interviews and he met with 3-4 different people with different problems for him to solve. After all the interviews he got to go on a tour around their amazing office complex. He enjoyed it there.
Last night he received a phone call from them though, and said that they weren't able to hire him at this time. We were both disappointed, and he was quite sad. K had not heard back from Hill yet either so he figured this was a good time to email them. Today they responded back that he had been selected, but they are waiting for the paperwork on their side to be all completed. It's not official but is now pretty certain.
We'll see where life takes us, but right now it seems like Ogden Utah...here we come!
Whoa! Ogden?! That's quite a change from Vegas! Well, Good luck! I hope you guys get the job and all!
