Resume circa 1995
I just saw a post from Bill Krazter about searching for his first post on usenet. This got me thinking about my activities and I google stalked the resume I sent out on misc.jobs.resumes on June 9th 1995.
Kind of interesting to look back at how I thought of myself 14 years ago. The text formatting got a little dorked up in the translation.
Hi, I've just gotten a Bachelor's degree in Computer Information Science, and am looking for employment as a programmer or assistant sysadmin in a UNIX shop. I have very good C skills, have done a pretty fair amount of "lower-level" unix coding for both the computer services dept at Kutztown, and for my personal use (i.e. wrote a finger utility when we switched OS's, and Dynix's finger was broken, wrote a user watch program that notified me when friends logged onto any of the networked machines here, and a process reaper to help kill runaway programs). I'm a quick learner and always enjoy exploring new areas. I have good verbal/written communication skills, enjoy beating expectations, and am a team player. I'd prefer a dress-down environment, and to work in the Philadelphia/Princeton area. If it sounds like I might be a decent match for your business, please get in touch. Thanks for your time. -Bill hathXXXX@kutztown.edu +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
