Yesterday evening, after an absurd hours-to-words ratio on my CV and covering letter, I killed the monster and flung it at Automattic. This morning I woke up to an email saying I’m through to the next round. Delighted, obviously, do-a-little dance kind of happy – but that was a 6 hour turn-around! A bit taken aback I was. Automattic do so say they try to respond quickly, but that seemed, well, freakishly fast. It was a bit like hitting a first ball when warming up for a friendly tennis match, only for it to come back with some serious zip. Need to be on my game here…
