Happy birthday to On the Hunt!
As of February 13,2011, this blog has been kicking it for 364 days. And the only reason I won't be posting on the real anniversary date is because I have a work event tomorrow evening and will be utterly exhausted by the time I get home. Whodathunk I'd be whining about work dinners a year ago? (insert happy dance)
Here's a quick list of highlights from the last year:
2 different interviews types experienced: informational interview, job interview.
1 job landed: research policy center.
3 different statuses within same workplace: part time contractor, part time employee, full time employee.
0 raises.
2 Guest blogs: KSAs and networking.
7 book reviews of job hunting, professionalization, personal finance books.
1 new set of skills learned.
2 “hello real world” money moments: student loans, retirement.
What's on deck for this coming year? I have a feeling a lot more about feeling my way through the workplace. How much "take home" work is too much? Raise conversation redux. How do I financially become an upstanding adult? Hopefully there will be no entries on workplace conflict, unemployment, or involuntary job hunting from scratch.
Happy hunting my friends, and keep reading!
