Sounds odd, and it feels odd, too. I didn't apply for my old job, exactly. I applied for a job that sounds exactly like my old job when I applied for it.
I dropped off my cover letter and resume to Creighton University for a job as an Instructional Designer with their Information Technology group, helping faculty put course materials online.
When I applied for my old job at the University of Iowa (almost five years ago now), it was as a Computer Consultant for Information Technology Services helping faculty learn to use technology.
I am somewhat hopeful that they will at least offer me an interview.
