A quick note about the Placement Center
March 25th, 2006 by Jennifer JohnstonI completely agree with Sarah: this being my first PLA conference, and having been to other state conferences, I was amazed by how nice everyone was, how easily conversations were initiated; I felt very comfortable. I also wanted to add a quick note about the Placement Center: I’d never interviewed at a conference, and was nervous about doing so, but it was a great experience! You can check out a library’s booth in the Center, grab some information to take with you, and make an appointment to interview there. Mine was Friday. It lasted about 30 min, and was a basic “informational” exchange, just getting to know more about each other. Very wonderful and recommended. (Just make sure you don’t do what I did and ignore the hotel phone call, only to wake up later realizing you have a mere 45 min to get ready and grab a cab, with no time for coffee!)
