While job opportunities abound on university sites like hirealonghorn.org and accessUT, this dummie decided to hit up the Austin job market old school style and took the hunt to the streets.
Some revelations/awkward highlights:
1. Group Interviewing. Thoughts: weird; There is nothing like a group of five girls bying to answer the same questions better than each other…. especially in the middle of a store….. during operational hours…. yeah…
2. Cover letters. Thoughts: good requirement for career oriented jobs; bad requirement for coffee shops, unless you feel called to all things caffeinated.
The job hunt resumes tomorrow. Tips welcomed. Encouragement needed.
