Linux Commercialization Transforms Community
Last week I interviewed, by invitation, with one of the two major Linux commercial vendors in the US. I wanted to see what occurs in that environment since almost everything they say about their work is "No Comment". I found out a great deal since I researched the people scheduled to interview me.
I would characterize the interview as one of the most humiliating experiences I can remember. The group manager's correspondence seemed full of enthusiasm. I thought from that correspondence that I would actually interview face to face for a position for which I had several telephone interviews.
I made a day trip out of the travel since I don't like to pack even for a 1500 mile, 15 hour excursion. When I arrived, I soon discovered the company had no plans to conduct a normal interview. I had taken a trip to a major city on the east coast to become a member of a feed lot for cattle.
I found an absence of a coordinator. My schedule didn't fit the one sent to me. People other than those scheduled interviewed me. They did not have my resume.
