Job Hunting....

Okay so it has really been a long time since I last wrote. Since graduating from college, I have tried to find a good job, help my parents with reconstruction of our house, and prepare for my brother's wedding. Sadly I have had little time to focus on writing...

So here's the most exciting news: I got a new job! Due to the difficulty in finding a good, secure job, I have spent the last six months applying and interviewing with many businesses. The search was painstaking and discouraging. But in the end it was worth it all. Why? Because of the things I learned... 

1. Dress your best! (First impressions are important to securing a good job)

2. Follow up (Re-turning potential employers' phone calls promptly is important. It is important to show them that you are serious and really want the job.)

3. Believe that you can do the job! (Lack of confidence is evident to your interviewers)

4. Network (Securing a good job is helpful when you know people within the company. Get to know people and don't be afraid to sell yourself!) 

5. Follow through (Remember all the positive qualities you promised during the interview? Follow through and be your company's best employee.)
