Oh joy of joys...job hunting
Permalink Closed

I find myself at a crossroads in life.  I know that I am sick of working where I currently do, but I don't know where to go from here.  Anyone want to help brainstorm?  Here's a brief list of my qualifications/experience:


-2 years in export/shipment coordination.  During those two years have also worked on making marzipan sales in US, and basics of almond trading.  My job entails a lot of attention to detail, some negotiation, a lot of client interaction on the phone.


-Have also worked as an author's assistant, and in sales (retail and vacation sales)


-B.A. in International relations


-Fluent in French, extremely well traveled


-Enjoy research, writing - won an award in college for one of my papers.


-Things I love:  Fashion (of course ), travel, reading, international relations.

Perhaps you could do some freelance work writing travel reviews or articles about travel...that could turn in to a full time column or job with a publication?

Thanks for the ideas!  I'm definitely interested in public affairs, and I've been tossing around the idea of moving to the D.C. area.  I just don't think SF is the right place for anything other than radically liberal/hippie-dippie stuff.  While I'm liberal, I'm not dread-head, patchouli, granola crunching liberal.    If you happen to think of anything else, I'm all ears!
