So this has been going around my flist for the last few days, and so I thought I should play too!
(1) Go to
http://www.careercruising.com/.
(2) Put in Username: nycareers, Password: landmark.
(3) Take their "Career Matchmaker" questions.
(4) Post the top ten results.
Archivist - hmmm, might be ok, my sister-in-law does this
Historian - my major in college was history.....
Computer Network Specialist - only in my dreams
Telephone Operator ????????? I don't think so...
Administrative Assistant - this is my actual job...
Anthropologist - I would love that...
Postal Clerk - probably could, but would hate it quickly
Hospital Service Worker - not on your life!!!!
Music Teacher / Instructor - except for the bit where I have no musical sense whatsoever....
Editor - isn't that like beta reader? I can do that!
Well, that was different...kind of hit and miss. Part of the problem was they asked what I would LIKE to do, not what I was QUALIFIED to do!
And this is a nice lead-in to the newsy part of this post :
I may have mentionned (several dozen times) that I don't like hate my job? Maybe sound familiar?
Well, I finally got my act together and am actively looking again, and guess what?! Today I got called by a job recruiter! She has several jobs I look qualified for! She asked for my latest updated CV! She might want to meet with me!
Yay! This is such a relief after the miserable week I just had at my current job (boss=hatehatehate). I sure hope this pans out, so please send positive thoughts and vibes my way!
