Hi Ho Hi Ho a'Job Hunting I Go....

[paragraphs]

Okay flisties in the US, what sources would you suggest for job hunting? Given my former job experience (railroad-specific, some GIS, mapping, research but not of the science kind but the contract kind, but in terms of researching historical documents and contracts, as well as further in the past, legal secretarial) I have no idea what I will end up doing.

I don't want to go back to the admin world, I really really don't. I am much happier doing my projects on my own, or as part of a team, than obeying the whims of bossy ol' lawyers. And yeah, I've worked for great lawyers in the past, but the douchebag ones (did I really say that?) really turned me off from the legal world.

Anyway, suggestions welcome!

I hate job hunting.

Tomorrow I go back to UTA to figure out what to make of my messy, whacked past. This'll be super-interesting, to say the least. I want to take at least one class, and have a couple of options to make that happen. Fingers crossed I can work it out, and get started on changing my life education-wise.

I wish I could be of more help to you, I was doing the job hunting all last year, but animation is such a different industry from everything else that I'm not quite sure what sort of advice I can give. I can however send you my resume, which is more formatted like a business resume that you could use as a template for yours. Also, do you have a Linked In account? It seems to be a good way to network.
