Job Hunting, The Spam Method
No, not spamming out your resume. Everyone does that in today's online job search market.
(Sidebar: Our site is closing in June so everyone here is looking for work and we all know it.) A colleague of mine had his web-mail account infiltrated by a spamming program and just sent Viagra e-mails to everyone he's e-mailed with and interviewed with during the past 4 months. It's terrible, but I can't stop laughing... |

A woman at work here had it happen too with her hotmail. Kinda funny when you think about it and I'm sure people understand. |

It doesn't say much about your computer/Internet chops when your spambot computer Emails everyone you've interviewed with.
I hope he instead put emphasis on his people skills. He can demonstrate them well now...
