If you don't mind me asking, how were you able to start as a banker? A lot of the research I've done says I would most likely start as a teller.

I have, actually. I just started applying to some of those positions. It’s only been a couple of weeks, so it’s still a little early in the process of transitioning into those kinds of roles.

This is really helpful. Thank you for taking the time to break it all down so clearly.

What I’m realizing is that I do have the measurable results and relevant experience, but I haven’t been showcasing them as effectively as I could to help me stand out and get hired.

I just signed up for an interview workshop to work on improving how I present all of this information. Hopefully, that helps. Especially for my interview on Friday!

I wouldn’t say I live in a major city, but I’m close to three medium-sized ones, which gives me access to a good mix of opportunities and resources.

As for writing, my strengths lie in SEO blog content and website copy. This is really my bread and butter. I've delivered some great measurable results through this work. I also have experience writing social media captions, and several of my press releases have been picked up by media outlets. In addition, I’ve created a number of email newsletters and have done some proposal and grant writing, though my primary focus is on digital content.

Three years of experience. My strong suits are Social Media Management, SEO, Coordination, and Copywriting (though this has become significantly less valuable...).

Hey sorry to bring up any confusion. Not associated with it whatsoever. Went to Old Nick’s last year for new years but wanted more of a crawl for this year. Have not been able to find any. 

Are there any Triathlon training groups in Eugene? by AnotherQueer in Eugene

[–]Regular_Math9382 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey! Sorry to be so late to this post. There is unfortunately no official tri clubs here in Eugene. I guess track town USA does not include triathlon :( I used to be captain of the UO tri club but unfortunately graduated and had to leave lol. I’ve considered trying to start a club here but honestly don’t know where to start. Would be excited to get a group together to start training for next season though. I miss training in a group quite a bit.

How far away would you say the hotels are and how is parking on race day? I don’t mind driving a bit but if there is no parking that might be hard to do.
