I am positive if you did this in good faith, then they never spelled it out anywhere: usually companies like the boss and/or an officially designated (read: briefed) spokesperson to talk to media.
Just as a for instance: letās say Iām being interviewed because of something I volunteer for outside of work. If the reporter asks where I work, I can give the name of the company and my title, but anything past that has to go through legal.
Which is why I and most of my colleagues are very vague about where we work and who our clients are, even with friends and family. Itās not worth the hassle.
It sounds to me like that company decided they had that rule after you talked to the media. Their loss.

Great! Doctor Who and the Cold War. Sounds perfect for you.
I might not know enough about Doctor Who to read the book. I donāt know the show very well at all. I could still probably give it a read.

Itās less about the show, and more about the circumstances that allowed the show to finally become a hit in the US like it has.

I will read it, and hopefully not get too confused. Maybe I might become a fan of the show

Iāve finally completely figured out how I (both as director and Captain Hook) can make do with a crew of two. (And one of them is Smee, who isnāt ideal for the rough stuff).
Iāve already jettisoned almost all of Act 3, practically reducing it to a speech given by Hook to the audience. The speech is supposed to be delivered to my crew, so Iāve made the audience my surrogate crew. The play loses the big fight in the middle, but the croc chasing me through the audience should make up for it.
But, what to do about Peter Panās heroic rescue for the final act? Itās considerably less heroic if he only fights one pirate followed by Hook. Well, in the original play, one of the first pirates defeated is dispatched out of the audienceās view in the shipās cabin. My cunning plan is that I acquire a box of greatly varying hats, secure it backstage, have my pirate rush into the cabin, scream piteously, rush around back stage, and then re-emerge, repeatedly, each time sporting different head gear, until weāve milked the gag sufficiently.
Thatās enough work for today. Time for grog.

About a month ago I interviewed for a job that I really liked. It was in the Pan-Am Building and everything. The interview went very well ā Iām getting good at the interview dance.
But, as I wrote above, that was a month ago and I havenāt heard anything since.
Until yeasterday. I got an email from this companyās HR asking me to fill out a WOTC online form.
It aināt much, but itās better than nothing. At least I know Iām still on their list of names somewhere. Thatās the best news Iāve had in a while.
