Yesterday, I also applied to my highest position yet, Director of R&D, which I found on craigslist. What's kind of funny is that the e-mail address is really anonymous, like most ads on craigslist, but after I sent my resume, I got an out of office reply and the reply to e-mail actually reveals the name of the company. I actually think I'd be qualified to be an engineer there, though their website's career section doesn't have anything for me. This company is actually publicly traded and the stock is down like 25x from the peak.
I like the fantasy of this job listing though. You know, like I could e-mail my old boss and say, "I'm glad I'm not there any more because now I'm Director of R&D." This is generally my feeling on lottery tickets, which I'll buy when the powerball is over 100 million. I feel like I'm buying that moment when I imagine what it'd be like to win.
Still haven't met the goal yet of applying for a c-level position, but I'll keep looking.
