Day 90
I have made progress.
Good news: Yesterday I was for a part-time position as a tutor. OK, so it’s not a journalism job, but it’s money. The problem is, the agency is just getting started and is still looking for students to tutor. So I don’t really have work just yet.
Better news: Tomorrow I have a phone interview for a fellowship position at a news website. Although it’s temporary, it is a paid position and it’s fairly local. I’m really excited about the opportunity; I’m not trying to get my hopes up, but it really does feel right for me. Of course, it’s technically not a “job” so my goal has not yet been achieved, but this is a great opportunity. I really feel like it’ll give me the experience I need to more competitive in this market. Once again, I won’t divulge too many details right now.
