The Weekly Job Hunt Routine

Way back when I graduated from the Art Institute I set up a weekly list of websites to visit.  If you are also searching for jobs in the apparel industry in the Portland area, you may find this list useful.  Add a comment if you think I've forgotten anyone.

Monday-

• Craigslist.  I check Craigslist every single day.  Also, about once/week I'll go to the Seattle and Salem pages just in case there's something out there for me.
• iMatchSkills.  A requirement of unemployment, and one I have yet to find useful.
• 24Seventalent.  24Seven is a recruiting agency, a little like Kelly Services.
• Fred Meyer.  Did you know their corporate offices are in Portland?  One of my internships was here in their Apparel Product Development department.
• Doc Marten.  Their US headquarters are in Portland.  How cool is that?  It is my dream to work in footwear.

Tuesday-

• Craigslist.  
• Danner.  Known for their hard-working work boots.  Not only are they headquartered here, they make the boots here, too.
• File for a week of unemployment benefits.  
• Icebreaker.  New Zealand merino wool.  Love their stuff. 

Wednesday-

• Craigslist.  
• Columbia Sportswear.
• Pendelton. 
• Hanna Andersson.  High quality childrens' wear.

Thursday-

• Craigslist. 
• Adidas.  
• Keen.  I'm outdoorsy, therefore I have Keen sandals.
• Merrell.  Merrell is owned by Wolverine Worldwide.  I am outdoorsy, therefore I own Merrell hiking boots.
• Oregon Employment Department job listings

Friday- 

• Craigslist.
• Nike.
• Nau.  Probably Portland's most famous "green" apparel company.
• BikePortland.  No, I'm not looking for a job as a bike mechanic.  I'm just hopeful that someday Showers Pass will post on here looking for an entry level designer/developer.  You never know.
