Onwards
Right-ho, the master résumé is all set to go. That being after I kicked myself for forgetting to put my spring student-hourly job with these folks on there, which was really quite amazingly stupid of me as it’s the only genuine library experience I have, and librarians can be snobbish about that.
But. It’s ready. Now I’m setting myself the task of collecting all the job notices I’ve been stashing in my email inbox and on del.icio.us (sure, if you want to apply for one or all, go for it; may the best librarian win), figure out which ones accept electronic submissions, and put together cover letters and tailored résumés for those.
I’ll do the print ones tomorrow.
Feels a bit funny, all this. Some people are used to always nosing about for the next job; I’m not, despite a career that thus far feels like what my mother used to call “puddle-jumping,” back when airlines strung together a lot of short-hop flights instead of hub-and-spoking it the way they do now. I know the drill, and I’m doing my best with it. Still feels funny.
Bombs away. We’ll see how it goes.
