HOW TO CONDUCT A FULL-TIME EMPLOYMENT JOB SEARCH

As a liberal arts student, you have developed sophisticated skills for finding information, conducting research, identifying issues and solving problems. A job hunt is simply an application of these skills.

It is nearly impossible to provide a “one size fits all” job search timeline, since each type of position you apply for comes with its own industry-specific protocols. Give yourself time to start preparing your search, exploring potential employers, and talking to as many people as possible.
