I’m famous! Part IV

Sunday, July 22nd, 2007

Allen in the AJCYet another newspaper has decided that they like my video resume! I was featured in an article in today’s Atlanta Journal & Constitution on video resumes. If I were looking for a job, I should try to get one with a newspaper company after seeing their affinity for my webcamming. There was an unfortunate error in the article which falsely claims I was offered the job that I created the video resume for. I was not offered the job and am not sure why the AJC misrepresented that fact. There is a time line mistake, as well. Despite the inaccuracies, it was a good article and I was featured in far more of it than I would have expected. The full color photo on the front page of the AJC Jobs section was a nice touch, too. Papa, my paternal grandfather, unknowingly discovered the photo and article this morning and called my parents around 7:30am because he was so excited. Hearing about that made my day.

7/26/2007 Update: I asked the AJC to correct the error asap. They will be running a correction bit in next Sunday’s paper and they have already corrected the online article.

8/09/2007 Update: Here is the correction bit that the AJC ran in the July 29th newspaper.
