Hi Jason,

First, thank you for such a detailed letter. I think I am indeed marketing myself poorly. My cover letter is generic, boring even to myself, as I've been thinking no one probably cares to read it.

Second, I am using those irritating online e-submissions, which make me feel miserable. Never worked for me.

Finally, I am currently working at a small mezzanine finance company in entertainment industry doing waterfall financial modeling and simulation. I am not sure whether this experience is going to hurt me but I need to buy myself time to put together another plan of attack on the ER career. I wasted six months on a job hunt and can not afford to do that anymore.

Thank you again for your time! I enjoy reading your other posts on investing.

Sam
