Welcome!

So I've decided with only a few short months seperating yours truly from a college degree, I'd create a blog to ease the minds of my fellow senior students (and, if nothing else, make myself more attractive in today's technology driven job market CHA CHING).

Here you'll find regular posts with helpful tidbits regarding securing a job, interview tips, advice from experts (namely, friends who have successfully landed a job or have found themselves on illustrious internship committees), and most importantly, points of interest to distract readers from the looming threat of wearing a cap and gown.

Welcome to the mind of a college senior- rapidly approaching graduation and entering the real world in the midst of a recession and record low amounts of entry level positions, armed with nothing but her education, resume, and a sense of humor.


Now because I'm not OFFICIALLY beginning the countdown until next Tuesday when classes resume at my particular institution, I'm offering my first point of procrastination: http://www.sporcle.com/

Cleverly simple, Sporcle is a trivia website that tests the knowledge of patrons. Some are especially easy. I nailed the test asking me to name all of Santa's reindeer pretty quickly. Others, not so much. I tried to name all of the planets and almost forgot Uranus (I'm aware of the jokes that can be made in response to that). There's a test that asks ambitious readers to name all 150 Pokemon or every point of historical interest named in Billy Joel's "We Didn't Start the Fire." Trust me, this website can keep you occupied for hours on end, but beware- all of the tests are timed. Don't say I didn't warn you.
