Episode 4: A New Hope

Yes, that title is a tip of the hat to Star Wars.  In the series, the first movie released was actually the fourth "episode" in the series and I couldn't help but feel that is applies to myself right now.

I recently accepted a full-time position at iWatchLife.  The company is just about to re-launch it's internet-based video monitoring solution in a few weeks.  A new site is being built behind the scenes as I type but I haven't really had much, if any, involvement because I've been working on getting up to speed and frankly, we're on a deadline and I don't want to interfere.

If you know me, you'll probably remember that I completed by MBA in June 2009 and have been doing various things since then but it's been a long, hard road getting to where I am right now.  Looking for work and networking can be a long, hard road that seems to never end.  I was averaging at least 5 events at month, and that's a pretty low estimate.  I wish I kept a journal but I guess the PILE of business cards that I have at home serve the same of purpose.  

I learned a tonne of things along the way and I'm going to posting them soon.  Stay tuned!.
