This week I have been in the process of applying to more jobs. As I stated in my first blog, I am in search of one in the Boston area. A few of my friends from PC and I are planning on getting an apartment outside of Boston so it would be ideal to get a job close to where I plan on living. Yesterday, I actually got a second interview from one of the companies I interviewed with before Spring Break, which I am very excited about! I have been very impressed by the people at this company as well as the company itself. Even though things are going well this week, the job search can be extremely stressful. It’s difficult to hear about other people getting jobs and to manage your time so that you can keep up to speed on job openings. There are, however, some great resources out there that can make the process a lot less stressful, one of them being Career Services at Providence College. Career Services does a great job of e-mailing students periodically to provide tips on the job process, as well as keep them informed of deadlines and career fairs. I also advise that if you need some guidance in getting a job or even an internship, that you setup an appointment with someone in Career Services. They are very helpful in providing advice and critiquing cover letters and resumes. PC also has a useful website, eFriars, where you can search for jobs based upon your interests. eFriars helps you stay informed about upcoming job opportunities and their application deadlines. I have also found a number of websites to be useful, such as Monster.com and CareerBuilder.com. There are so many jobs out there, it’s just a matter of finding one that you feel is the right fit for you. Since I don’t know exactly what I want to do, I feel that I am more open-minded to job opportunities that arise, and it has really helped me to explore my options. I realize that you are all in a similar situation in finding a college that fits right for you, and I assure you there is one out there. PC is that place for me and I hope I can say that about the job I have someday.
