Your New Career May Be a City Away

A college graduate’s education continues even after they receive their diploma. New venues lead to new opportunities and careers. These new opportunities in turn lead to a lifelong learning experience. If a change is on the horizon, it’s vital to think about a creative and meaningful location to settle for a grad’s lifelong career building. Throw in a growing prospect for jobs, and that city may just be the next hot spot for the upcoming leaders of the work force. The epicenter of your desired career may be just a plane ride away.

Degree holders are heading for the most innovative and groundbreaking cities in the country. The best jobs for these young men and women ask for a location in which creativity can flourish and energy flows through the streets. Los Angeles and New York may seem like the first places to go after college, but the jobs are just not as fruitful as you may believe. Ever-growing cities are the target area for the graduate of the next ten years. Prospective workers are flocking to these new cities, and bringing their cultures and ideas with them.

Check out 10 Best Cities For the Next Decade: a perfect list for graduates on the road toward success. From Austin to West Hartford, there is a city for everyone, and one of these will be yours. Just don’t forget to pack your suit for that new career waiting when you arrive.

“Always Sunny” Job Negotiations

The following clip is from the “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia” from the season 4, episode “Sweet Dee has a Heart Attack”.  Mac and Charlie are in need of health coverage, so they negotiate themselves out of a higher wage.

Remember during your job negotiation:

The Do nots:
1) Go in to an interview with someone other than yourself or share a resume (0:04)
2) Use personal lingo/jargon.  Stay formal with your presentation (0:18)
3) Say personal achievements that everyone should have done (i.e. showering, going to the bathroom, “complete charge of my life”) (0:26)
4) Offer illegal actions for an employer (0:42)
5) Reveal what your intentions with your pay will be (“You don’t have to pay us at all,” or “This is not about money.”) (1:01)

The Do’s:
1) Come with a resume
2) Wear your best clothing (professional suits preferred, though)
3) Subtly stress your values (“going green” like Mac and Charlie)
4) Show your enthusiasm to work (“[I] can do whatever you need”)
5) High five the employer (just kidding, a handshake will do just fine)
