Funny email got from the chair
To all ECE Students who left resumes with Microsoft
at the recent IT engineering career fair: apparently all
of the resumes were stolen, as per the message below, and
the folks at microsoft would like to have you resubmit them
electronically. See the message below for more details.

The Edward S. Rogers Sr. Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering,

Did you go to the career fair and meet a Microsoft employee at the
booth? Did you give them your resume? Well....a funny thing happened
to your resume on the way to Microsoft. It got stolen. Seriously. We
know U of T is full of extremely talented students, but in the war for
college talent, we had no idea how cut throat things would be. This
hasn't happened before on our watch. Be flattered...no Waterloo resumes
have ever been stolen.
We want to make sure that you are considered so please re-send your
resume in soft copy to
UofTres@microsoft.com and we will look for
appropriate positions for you!
AND... to make it a bit more compelling, we will be giving away an Xbox
360 to one lucky student who submits their Computer Science, Computer
Engineering, Engineering Science or Software Engineering resume before
November 1st. The winner will get an Xbox delivered to them after the
official release date of November 22.
I can't wait to hear from you and good luck in winning the Xbox!
