INTERVIEW NOTES

A couple of weeks ago I had an interview with that company that I really wanted to work for. I won’t say who it was. I’ll just say that it would have been an ideal position for me. In order to prepare, I wrote a list of talking points that I anticipated could be discussed during the interview and I had them ready. Since this was an online interview, I had the privilege to have this with me. If this were a face to face interview, I would have just memorized them beforehand to the best of my ability. Since I suspect that I didn’t get the job, you might wonder if this exercise worth doing, I think think it is. It helped me to focus on what I wanted to say and not go off on weird tangents (like I sometimes do).

PODMAN AND MY HUGO DEVELOPMENT ENVIRONMENT

I prefer to keep my main OS clean and uncluttered, avoiding installing too many programs that I don’t use frequently. When I first learned about virtual machines (VMs) many years ago, I realized how useful they could be for experimenting without risking my main system.

HELLO WORLD

Hi, I’m Jason. My C.V. is a globe-trotting adventure through many areas of the IT world. I’ve been tinkering, troubleshooting, and teaching tech for longer than most servers have been online. From the bustling tech hub of The Research Triangle Park, NC to the serene landscapes and charm of Prague, I’ve left my footprint across the internet and on at least a couple continents.
