blogging for my sanity!
I have been talking about applying for jobs, for about a solid month now and today I decided that I was going to buckle down and start the hunt. Little did I know, how time straining and overwhelming it could be! So, to help me stay motivated (and sane) I thought I would share how my search is going.
I first listed the 3 major locations I would like to live in:
-Denver, CO
-San Diego, CA
-Charlotte, NC
(I haven’t made it past Denver yet)
But then I went to Google and searched some of my key words: “PR” “jobs” “Denver” and I came across all kinds of options. A lot of them required several years of experience, which made it easy to go on and look at others. I found a few job opening that looked interesting so I applied. I filled in a lot of information, answered a lot of questions and added my resume and cover letter and hit the big blue “apply” button. The feeling of applying for a first job is absolutely terrifying. I just hope that all my information, and hard work looks as good on a computer screen thousands of miles away from here, as I hope it does!
After applying, I looked for the businesses on Linked in, so that I could be able to be connected to them on there as well! I also looked for them on twitter and Facebook. Just trying to cover all my bases. As much as I hope landing my first job will be because of what I know, I’m thinking it will be more of who I know, simply because I may just be black and white letters on a screen.
Let the search continue!
