How’s the challenge coming along? 20 resume AND cover letter submissions by March 1st, baby. Hopefully you are all rocking it out. I apologize for not posting yesterday, I try to post 5 days a week or whenever I have something valuable that I need to get out there, but I was actually catching up on work from time that I lost last week to the Valentine’s Day Blizzard.
I stumbled upon a great college student oriented audio broadcast, possibly a podcast - I don’t know, in which students that were in a career class were asking Dick Bolles, the author of What Color Is Your Parachute? (a great book, check it out) questions about their search. Listening to this podcast was bizarre because I could relate to both sides. I remember the ideas, the jobs that I thought I wanted, and what I was feeling while searching for jobs last year. On the flip side of the coin, now I also feel like I could answer my own questions from the past right along with Mr. Bolles. It was a deja-vu experience for me, and I think you will learn a few things from listening.
I especially liked the first caller, “I’m a senior plus, plus, plus…”. What does that even mean?
