Hi.  Please feel free to share the following email with students who might 
be interested in hearing what a Swat alum has to say about Amazon and life 
after Swarthmore.

Thanks you for your help.
Regards,
Erin


Dear Swarthmore Senior,

Please join me at 7:00 PM on Tuesday evening (10/19/04) in the Career 
Services Workshop Room, Parrish 159 to discuss work life after 
Swarthmore.  I'll be describing some job opportunities at Amazon.com (see 
attached job descriptions for examples), but I hope to discuss more than 
just Amazon.  We can talk about questions like
   * How did a political science / Asian studies major end up doing 
computer science and operations research at Amazon.com?
   * What's the difference between academic research and industrial 
research?
   * Why you might consider joining a company like Amazon.com, even though 
retailers on the web are not particularly cool or interesting.
I will be on campus on Wednesday (10/20/04) conducting interviews and 
meeting with students about other things as well.  Students will be able to 
sign up for a time slot to meet with me at the information session.

I look forward to meeting you.
