Girls Seeking That Big City Job Must Map Her Campaign With Care By RUTH MILLET The girl who has decided to go to a city and look for a job ought to spend plenty of time beforehand making her plans, lining up her leads, and getting her recommen dations in order. If she just picks up on the spur of the moment and decides to set out for the city to look for a job, chances are she will come home a disappointed girl. For, unless she has a plan for job-hunting worked out in advance, a girl is likely to be awed by the very size of a large city and by the impersonal attitude of the smart looking girls who sit behind reception desks and try to dis courage timid visitors from getting in to see the person who hands out jobs. A girl who hasn’t thought out her plan of campaign is likely to find herself settled in an expen sive hotel (thereby cutting down the number of days she can look for work.) Or she may be living in an inconvenient location, and so wasting precious time getting to the places where she wants to apply for work. Besides, if she nasn t a plan of attack that allows for a good many leads amounting to nothing, she is sure to find herself discour aged and on the verge of giving up after a few disappointing in terviews. So the smart thing for a girl to do is to get her job-hunt planned as carefully as a Hitler blitzkrieg. She’ll know before she ever leaves home where she will live and how much it will cost her. She’ll have an inexpensive room reserved in advance, so that there will be none of the business of arriving at a hotel and finding only expensive grooms vacant. She’ll have a good idea of what meals cost, and she’ll even have a map of the city so that she can figure out how to find her way around without wasting any more money than necessary on taxi fares. She’ll know to what firms she expects to go for personal inter views, and will have made ap pointments for those interviews by mail, whenever it was possible. She will see that she has the ADVERTISEMENT SKIN IMPROVEMENTS IN OULY A FEW DAYS helps lighten, brighten, soften, clear off dull skin, loosen black heads.
