My First List

• When you interview for a job, be very specific about what critical thinking skills to bring to the job and focus on your value. Don't be discouraged, make your case politely and you will find an employer who gets you. Half steps that help you reach your goal are okay. Figure out what the employer needs before they do by studying the company or organization you are interviewing with. Please let us know what you choose, you are on a wonderful journey.
• Figure out what attracted you to anthropology and see what other jobs use those same skills. Talk to your friends, family, and fellow colleagues about what your strong points/skills are. Leverage those skills. If you don't agree that is okay; talking to people will help you figure out what is important to you. I have a hunch you would be excellent at a non-profit because you are interested in the study of who we are. You might be an excellent travel guide or writer because you are used to studying culture.
