Hey Becca, would you mind sharing how you found your job? I'm currently finishing my studies and hunting for my 1st real job, too, and sometimes it eels utterly hopeless...

Ninaaa! Congrats on wrapping up with school. I completely understand how scary it is when bleak prospects make the job search seem impossible (…apologies for the anxious blogging you suffered from me, while I went through it. aha). A few things that I hope will help:

Decide early-on where you’re open to living. Searching the country/world for open jobs can be overwhelming, so pick a few places you’d really like to end up, and start there.

Look for sites that aggregate job openings in your field. In the library world, luckily for me, there are a bunch of these (like ArchivesGig, INALJ, and ALA Joblist). Often, professional societies will run these kinds of sites. Also helpful is checking out the websites of large universities and browsing their department pages for resources. Even if they’re aimed at internships instead of jobs, the guides will help you get a better picture of the field and what kinds of work are out there. I spent so many hours as an undergrad bookmarking stuff from various history, museum studies, and art history departments. It’s a folder I still keep around just because I found so many great leads.

Have someone review your personal statements and the intro you use for cover letters. I do this for a bunch of friends, and have some who do it for me. You need to get your personality across in a couple paragraphs in these documents, and sometimes having people who know you help to refine your message can be valuable. When I used to apply for internships at museums and archives, my first paragraph was always a short anecdote about the moment I fell in love with paintings at the Huntington Library. An impersonal, cookie-cutter-style letter is the worst thing you can do.

Ask mentors & professors for help. This is how I actually came to find the position I’m in now. Three previous internship supervisors knew I was on the search, and would send me things that came across their radars. These people might be able to put you in touch with an old colleague, or know someone who knows someone who’s hiring. Getting to know people (I don’t say networking, because putting it that way makes the introvert in me want to throw up) and relying on word-of-mouth can provide some of your best opportunities.

Sorry this got so long!! I’m posting publicly in case it helps others as well–hope you don’t mind, and let me know if there’s anything else I can help with.

ivyink replied to your post: Ok. Panic has officially set in. But not the...

you can do it!

Thank you for your encouragement!!! I actually did get my degree project in on time, although i slightly changed the focus of that middle part of it. 

After taking yesterday off, I’m now working on the training module without the panic involved. I’m hoping I can get it done today so then I’ll really be 100% done with nothing more to worry about. We’ll see how it goes!

OH MY GOD, I need the Hermione Granger with books illustration as a print! Is there any chance you sell these? :-)

i... do now! got a brand new society6 for anyone who’s got an deep, fervent desire to have my art be the last thing you see before you go to bed and the first thing you open your eyes to in the morning.

(you’re also allowed to.... just put it on the wall like a regular print. that is an option.) 

and you all should feel free to let me know if there’s anything specific you want in there! 

#not art #i'll make an official post about this when i have a couple more pieces in there i guess?? #currently just a random assortment of the hp pieces #ivyink

ivyink replied to your post: Could I have probably used today off work to focus...

Take care of yourself, you can do this, i believe in you!

Thank you <3333 I really appreciate that. I just had a really good meeting that helped me sort out some of my internship stuff and I’m making good progress through the lit review I needed to complete today, so I’ll hopefully complete everything on time. But we’ll see how this goes.
