So here's where I'm at right now. I've been looking around for jobs a lot. This includes looking at job sites, as well as looking at company sites that aren't hiring, but that sound pretty cool from what their websites say (that sounds like a pretty unintelligent search, I know). Also, I've been emailing a handful of Tufts alumni I found online, and I've corresponded with a handful of them. But as I'm sure I've lamented before, I'm not really sure what I'm looking for. (Dangling participle?) This of course is a problem when one piece of advice I've received is to be tenacious.
** Yes, Aaron's easy-going ways aren't exactly helping him get a leg-up that might separate his application from those of the competition. **
But I'm convinced that I'll figure out sooner or later (yes we all hope sooner) what looks good. And while it might sound like I just don't care about ever finding something, that's not at all true. It's just that I'm not feeling horribly defeated by my lack of direction. At least not for the moment. It isn't all that exciting, but it's really not such a bad thing.
On a somewhat related note, my apologies to anyone who, along the way, might have suggested someone I get in touch with. I think that a couple people gave me names, and I remember not really paying attention to those names, and it probably came off as me ignoring the suggestion. At the time I think it had more to do with not being sure what to do with a bunch of names that didn't mean anything to me. Well now that I'm used to emailing complete strangers whose names don't mean anything, I'm more than happy to try again with those names you suggested. So if you're reading this, and you know what I'm talking about, hit me up with those names again. I'd love to network with them. Thanks.
