Yes – the opportunity for FREE money! Thanks to the supporters of the Indiegogo campaign that ended about a month ago, I can offer a small, but not insignificant scholarship to the ASCA 2013 National Conference in Philadelphia. I was lucky enough to receive a scholarship similar to this in 2011 that allowed me to make it up to Seattle and my experience was great. I know there are others out there who may have financial trouble…

Marketing Myself and Being Prepared On Tuesday, I posted a video blog about the process I took (and a process you can take too!) to construct a digital professional portfolio. This week I have been busy constructing my interview kit and I wanted to share that with you as well. Looking at it, I feel like it is a lot – but I think will be well prepared to answer the questions and show evidence with the arsenal I bring with me…

Today was a day of firsts… I had an exciting, albeit tedious, opportunity today to experience the “other side” of the interview table. I have had many past experiences being the one getting asked the hard questions, feeling somewhat awkward, and scrambling to think of “the right answer”, but before today I have never had the perspective of the interviewer. For those of you who have been on the interview…
