Hey Everybody!
I hope you have been enjoying everything that us girls have been posting for you guys. I hope our opinions and experiences have really been able to help. Heather, Meg, Amanda and I have been trying our hardest to blog about topics that will help you the most. If there is anything that you want personal advice about please feel free to contact us through a comment either on this blog or through our personal website. We are open to any new idea and we are here to help. We are all students in similiar situations so don't be shy; the more help anyone can get or give is beneficial.

I know that for Franklin Pierce University graduation is right around the corner so it is truly crunch time. Over the past couple of weeks I have been working hard to both get my resume out to companies and network by putting my personal website up on both my twitter and facebook page. My website has really helped me when it comes to potential employers asking for my reel or sample writings. With my site it is easy to just send one quick link so that they can see everything that I have to offer. So everyone I must say get your online portfolio finished! It will only help you out in the long run.

I am starting to feel the panic of graduation and the career world however, for now I am going to remain at ease and continue to take things by stride. Good luck everyone. Relax and finish everything so that your experience and personality can truly shine. Contact us please if you need any help!

Welcome :-)


Thank you for taking a peek at our blog. Meghan, Heather, Amanda and I (Alycia) are four girls about to take the plunge into the real world. Currently we are college students preparing ourselves for life long careers and success. We have been working on our resumes for three or four years and we understand how hard it is to prepare yourself for post graduation. Since the four of us have been going through so much and have learned a lot about preparing for life after graduation we would like to share our knowledge with others. We want to be able to help other college students get ready and be able to fully prepare themselves for what is to come. The goal of this blog site is to educate others on resumes, cover letters, interview skills, demo reels, the current job market and give advice regarding mistakes the four of us have made and also obstacles we have overcome. As four involved mass communication majors we feel that blogging about our college experience can benefit others. Thanks for giving our advice a chance, enjoy!
