Linden Lab Boston Recruiting Party

It seems that Boston is home of all sorts of parties, the Boston Tea Party, the “We Finally Beat the Yankees after 80-somewhat years” Party, and now the Linden Lab Boston Recruiting Party. This party is a way for the Linden’s to meet potential new employees and hire them. If your passionate about emerging technologies, or passionate about Second Life and have the skills that they are seeking, AND willing to head over to New England, I would recommend that you submit your resume and get an invite to the party. Not only will you get to meet Linden’s and discuss things Second Life (in attempts to become recruited), but you’ll also enjoy a plethora of music spun by myself! For those who got invited, I’ll be seeing you there, remember to put your best foot forward and good luck! Continue reading
