It's been brought to my attention that I was much more interesting when I posted every day. Sadly, I've been on a twice a week kick because I've been horribly busy with my current obsession:
Job searching.
It started in February. I devoured want ads and online job forums. Then I started to churn out cover letters and resumes. Personalized, of course. After the resume was sent, I had to stalk the listing in order to note what day it was taken down.
I'm a woman on a mission. A mission to be the owner of full-time job by August. What types of things am I applying for? Online writing and editing, entry level PR for non-profits, and random quasi-governmental jobs of interest. At the moment, I'm targeting Pittsburgh and Washington, D.C., but am willing to branch out into other areas of PA if things get sparse. Like Amish Country.
Next up? The interviews. One this week, and more to come, I hope! :)
