New on the Mac's List Blog
Greetings!

 

Finding a job takes sleuthing skills. Laura Schlafly says baby boomers can find the next gig sooner by using 1970s TV detective Columbo's techniques.

 

Wonder what a hiring manager is thinking as you talk about a job? I share eight things employers won't tell you in an interview.

 

Speaking of interviews, Mike Russell says the best ones are those where you make your possible future boss the most important person in the room.

 

With graduation season upon us, Jessica Williams reviews Jenny Blake's "Life After College" a indispensable guide for new graduates or anybody in their 20s.

 

You can expect to change careers perhaps several times. Kare Anderson, who speaks in Portland on April 18, gives three tips to reinvent your professional self.

 

Did you miss the Beatles' Portland concerts in 1965? Brenden Morgan in his post on new employers and jobs says you should see Beatles tribute band RAIN this weekend.

 

Finally, we want to welcome Brenden who joins us this week as the social and digital media intern at Mac's List. Welcome aboard, Brenden!

 

Thanks,
