How to work in a museum
How I did it: I applied to four museum and gallery positions online in the last month. I was granted four interviews. The last one I applied for was at a Non-profit Art and Performing Arts Center and the interview went smoothly. Although it doesn't pay very well it is great to have my foot in the door. The best part is I am my own boss now (other than the board of directors that I work for!! :) Yippee! Good luck everyone!
Lessons & tips: Not all of the jobs were the perfect fit but I applied anyway for the experience. By the fourth interview I was finally in a good groove and had a great interview! They called me within two days to offer me the job.
Resources: I used Aviso, Craigslist, and local Museum and University websites to help me search. I also suggest the College Arts Association (CAA) to anyone needing help finding a job.
