 <\/p>\n

Naomi:\u00a0<\/strong> How did you find your current job?
\nNicole:\u00a0 <\/strong>I was collecting job posting for the Michigan INALJ <\/a>page. I applied the same day I posted it to the site.<\/p>\n

\n
Naomi:\u00a0<\/strong>Favorite library you have been to?
\nNicole: <\/strong>I can honestly say I have never met a library I didn’t like.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
Naomi:\u00a0<\/strong>Favorite book?
\nNicole: <\/strong>This is tough. I don’t really have favorites (it all depends on my mood and where I am at in my life at that moment), but if I were to choose it would be House of Mirth<\/i> by Edith Warton.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Naomi:\u00a0 <\/strong>Favorite thing about libraries\/ library technology?
\nNicole:<\/strong>\u00a0 I love that libraries are embracing change and are open to learning about new media and tech trends.<\/div>\n
\n
<\/div>\n
Naomi:\u00a0<\/strong>Any websites or feeds or blogs we should be following?
\nNicole: <\/strong>I enjoy following companies like Team Detroit <\/a>and RazorFish<\/a>. I think librarians and information professionals can learn a lot from seeing what these companies are doing.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Naomi:\u00a0<\/strong>Best piece of job hunting advice?
\nNicole:\u00a0 <\/strong>Stay positive and focused. I know everyone says that, but it’s true. Once I focused my goals and looked at each application as a learning experience things fell into place for me. Also, work on a personal brand.<\/p>\n
