Have I bored you yet?

I certainly hope not, but I must admit, the research is tedious. I had no idea how intense the research for labor statistics would be. In a poor economy, the job outlook is forever changing, along with the projections on where we will be next year at this time, let alone what market we are in. The Midwest will certainly be different than the West Coast, for example. Also, the employment numbers and pay will depend on whether you live in a metropolitan area, or rather a small town. My new fear? Taking a job based on what I thought it would be instead of what it is. Not all of this research will tell me exactly what I need to know when making my move. It will be important to research the companies I apply to, not just the types of jobs I am applying for. I'll keep at it. Watch for the upcoming notes of my interview on a career in communications/public relations.
