Free Blog!!!

For my free blog I am going to talk about the woes of trying to find a job for when I am no longer a student. This day is drawing very near, but there has been no luck in the job area so far.

I would love to start working somewhere in the beginning of January. Really, I like working full time. I did it this past summer and really enjoyed it. Last summer I was a bank teller; this was my first "real" job, believe it or not. I mean, I have worked before! In high school I worked at a dry cleaner for a little while, but that was only part time. Then I was a nanny for three summers for two different families. I love that (most days). Now I am a student, but soon it seems I will be nothing (as defined by my job title).

So where am I looking? Well, like I said, I worked at a bank last summer and really liked it. Therefore I am frantically searching any and all banks in the Clemson/Seneca area for openings of teller positions. I would love to go back to First Citizens Bank, which was where I worked previously. Unfortunately, they do not have any openings at the moment. I think I will email my old boss so that maybe if something does come open she will let me know right away. That would be great. But banks are not the only place I am willing to work. Actually, I am willing to work in almost any business setting. I think I would be a great in an administrative assistant type position. I love to organize and to be organized, to plan and schedule, to be creative, and to interact with people. Since my degree is in psychology (and I am probably going to be in grad school next fall for a counseling degree) anything in that area would also be welcome.

The trouble is finding the job openings. So far the Internet is not so good for this. I can't figure out how to find what I am just so sure is out there waiting for me! I am convinced that people are the answer... the best jobs are obtained through connections and a social network (and perhaps through many prayers)...
