Experience, Experience.com!

The spring semester is coming to a close (unless you go to a college that is on the quarter system, or the 3-1-3, yeah I'm talking to you University of Delaware, thanks a lot for holding my best friend hostage till JUNE you meanie). And if you are not in school and living in the real world of bills, early mornings, and a full time job, than this time of year isn't significant to you at all, my apologies. As for me, the end of the semester means I am a handful of blogs away from wrapping up my spring semester of blogging. And in all honesty, it has been rough coming up with blog topics as of late. The well has almost dried up and my thoughts have shifted from the sports world to how will I fit into that bikini by summertime and is it too soon to wear white shorts? Clearly these would not be acceptable blog topics for my editor, Ken (told you, you would get a shout out Ken). Although, fitting into that perfect summer suit would probably be on Ken's Blogging Wall of Fame, right next to my blog about sports related dating.

Sorry, got off on a tangent, back to the blog! After mulling around I decided to do something totally CRAZY and putter around on Experience.com, the website that is host to my infamous blog. Then a light bulb went off in my head. How could I be this daft? In two years (yes it's really been two years) of blogging for Experience, I have never once plugged Experience. And this is especially shocking to myself since 1. They sneakily hint any chance they get to give props to the site and 2. One has to imagine that I get an extra $100 added to my paycheck at every mention of their company. (Experience.com, Experience.com, Experience.com, Experience.com, that's at least $400 extra on my check, payroll dude at Experience.com-opps there's number 5!).


On your mark, get set....find a job on Experience.com!). Photo from Experience.com




So, just for the company that took a chance on me and not only pays me, but allows me to write in run on sentences and rant about anything I want (sports related that is), here are "The Reasons You Should Check Out Experience.Com (and Love it)."

* Experience.com is like a college job fair except online and with way better graphics and you don't even have to dress up (or leave your house) to use it.

*Experience.com has a Twitter account (aren't they current and hip!)

*On Experience.com you can set up a portfolio, search for job listings in your area of expertise, and reach out to potential employers through their networking site. And the separate pages help to make it more effective and less confusing for its users (aka even tomorrow morning, the day after Cinco de Mayo, when you are recovering from too many....chips and dip, you can still manage to work the website).

*Unlike other job related websites, Experience.com is geared toward college aged youngsters like yourself and is more personalized to your needs.

*Experience has different pages that focus on specific job areas such as: accounting, sports, entertainment, education, energy and so forth. And almost every page has its own blogger! Even accounting! I'm not sure what he writes about, but anyone that can write about accounting on a weekly basis is pretty impressive to me (and apparently the guy who blogs is a pretty big deal from his description. Note to self: do something more important with life to make blurb on Experience more exciting).

*Experience has an excellent list of job postings and even has links to sites such as this one for even more job searches: http://www.teamworkonline.com/?userhnd=0. Seriously, I didn't even know there were that many sports leagues out there, this site is an up and coming sportcasters dream.

All joking aside. Experience.com truly is a wonderful company to work for (and I would know) and they have a phenomenal product for anyone who is starting to look for potential jobs who does not want to be overwhelmed in the process.
