2010 in Review

PROS:
1. Graduated from Temple University with a B.A. in Communications
2. Still working part-time at Reckner, Inc in Montgomeryville, PA
3. Applied to more full-time jobs than I can remember.
4. Managed to schedule 3 interviews for 2011 - off to a great start!
5. Broke up with my boyfriend.
6. My brother and his girlfriend graduated from college and got excellent offers! (can't help but wonder what's wrong with me that I haven't found something?)

CONS:
1. Broke up with my boyfriend.
2. Haven't managed to find a full-time job.

SPLIT:
1. Told to not post things about my job search by people close to me despite the vast majority of advice I read tells me to talk about it to let people know that I'm looking for a full-time gig. It's all part of networking!

In sum, this year has been very good to me! I have a wonderful supportive family and network of friends, a job, a roof over my head, clothing, and food.

Wishing everyone a happy, healthy and wonderful 2011!

They actually have recruiters who have experience in the field and know how it works so they know who they are looking for. Their recruiters know how to get you the right job or the right employee.
