New on the Mac's List Blog
Greetings!

 

Many people over 50 are turning to entrepreneurship. Laura Schlafly explains why this could be an attractive alternative to out-of-work baby boomers.

 

Do you struggle with how to talk about your job search? I review a new book that tells you what to say and how to say it when you're looking for work.

 

Brenden Morgan has been with "Mac's List" for more than a month now. Here are five lessons he's learned about how to excel in an internship.

 

Gabrielle Nygaard, who leaves soon for South Korea after earning a diploma from Linfield, writes about how a gap year can help a job hunt.

 

Finally, be sure to check out why Portland made the national news on Brenden's post about Oregon's 39 Hottest Jobs.

 

Thanks,
