Welcome!

This is my blog about the up and downs of the job searching process. The blog name stems from the nickname that my friend and I have for the careers section in our local newspaper. We have both consulted it religiously in times of unemployment but tend to come across listings for jobs like ‘polony maker’ in abundant quantities and find ourselves wondering just how many polony specialists one city needs? Hence the nickname we give to the career section in the paper and indeed the search for jobs in general. It also serves as a very weak pun for this crazy time of my life when I literally don’t know where I will be or what I will be doing a year, a month or even a week from now. So welcome to the Polony Times and here’s hoping that I will have some clarity on my future soon.
