The invisible world of viral internet material distribution is fascinating. Who knows how it spread around so quickly and through so many channels. However, I did post it on everything I could to maximize its reach.
All the feedback has been great too. Here are some of my favorites:
- Via Twitter: "HA ck out this guys video resume—hilarious—hire him so he doesnt have 2 write more music!"
- Regarding the CNN webcam interview: "remember, you don't have to wear pants!"
- Comment From Spain: "Ver para creer!! Como hace la gente CVs en Internet"
Hopefully, all this will net me a job. As of now, I have phone interviews lined up with Monster.com and Sperry Top-Siders. Also, I've gotten about half a dozen emails that loved the video and want to see my actual resume. If this doesn't work in landing me a job, I can always follow through with my plan of creating an off-broadway musical based on my entire educational and work career and begin inviting prospective employers to come see it. Just kidding.
My only regret (CNN spelled "Biedrzycki wrong"-- but they pronounced it correctly!):

Alec, I watched your interview and listened to your performance. I would hire you in a heartbeat if I owned a company! You are bright, creative, and personable. Good luck in your job search!
A++ !! But dude, honestly - what in the world are you doing spending all this energy trying to hitch your wagon to someone else’s star? Seriously. No – SERIOUSLY. Open your own business. Blaze your own path. Take the leap and HIRE YOURSELF! You are the real deal.
