their in lies the problem. I am not sure of what I want. I can see myself happy in several different scenarios. but which to choose. I don't even know if I have to choose now. Currently the best thing I can figure for me to do is to keep my options as open as possible. I am applying mostly in the Boston area but elsewhere as well. I have an idea the type of jobs that I would like to have and even the ones that I actually have a chance of getting. I just don't know how to get actually get one. Besides to just keep applying. It's just so disheartening. There has got to be a better way to get a job out there somewhere.
and perhaps my lack of motivation is due in part to to need for more goal-oriented thinking - hmmmmm...
Realistically speaking, when starting out with one's career, you don't choose the job as much as it chooses you. You need to identify all the areas you're willing to work in, apply for ALL the jobs that you can "put up with", and then go with one that seems tolerable. It's usually called "paying one's dues" and I hate it as well, but the root of it is that few people will trust you have the skill and ability to do any job... everyone wants experience, and the only way past that is for your resume and cover letter to catch the eye of a potential employer. I know, I've been there. Temping is the way that I am using to partially bypass that, and it's been helping, but I *still* don't have a permanent position
