linkedin

In my last few posts about job hunting I've mentioned LinkedIn but haven't gone into detail on what it is about. Basically its a networking platform for professionals where you can upload a digital equivalent of your CV, link with your peers, follow potential employers and search for jobs. Its really handy to have whilst applying for jobs, like when I was filling out the application for the industrial placement at L'oreal it allowed me to link it to my LinkedIn which filled in all my details automatically. It also meant that the HR team could check my details quickly by looking at my LinkedIn profile.

on sundays I apply for jobs

and on Wednesdays we wear pink. Get it? 

milan: day three

Ok, our last day wasn't exactly spent in Milan (but the day did start and end there), we had a day out in Venice. The bus trip there was really long but absolutely worth it once we got onto the boat that ferried us to the main part of Venice.

milan: day two.

Our second day in Milan was spent acting like complete tourists. So be warned, this post is going to be very picture heavy. We started the day off with gelatos and sat by a fountain on Piazza Fontana.

milan: day one

Way back last year my university began to arrange a trip away to Italy, I had never been before so jumped at the chance to go. Coincidentally it landed on my birthday weekend and being in Milan for my 24th birthday was perfect. 

honours project update.

A quick update on my window display for my honours project; I cannot believe I only have 11 weeks to my degree show. The panic is setting in. This past week I took on the mammoth task of painting the wall behind the display. Its around 4 metres wide and 3 metres tall and I probably would have collapsed in a heap midway if it wasn't for Kate's help. I chose a turquoise as I chose a lot of greens and coral pinks for my rope and I think the backdrop will make these colours pop.  

masters research

Whilst searching for some direction in my life I stumbled across www.findamasters.com, a search engine that lets you look for masters courses using specific criteria.
