    Appleton/Oshkosh/Green Bay, Wisconsin

    I recently accepted a job offer in Appleton, Wisconsin. Does anyone know much about this area? I'll be there from mid-March to June (possibly longer). For someone who has lived and worked on the west coast his entire life without ever stepping foot in the Midwest, what should I expect?

    Connecticut or Seattle?

    New car for an upwardly mobile young professional

    I am looking to buy a car to last me the next 5-8 years. I am just beginning my career and I need a car that will last me until I can comfortably buy a newer/next-level car, if that makes sense. I will need to drive a lot and have a car I can rely on. I'm working and living in the North West...

    The Coffee Shop Interview: What's Appropriate?

    This next week, I have three 'informational' interviews at coffee shops. These are with professionals in a downtown environment (albeit on the west coast) and are not for an entry-level position. My question is whether or not I should wear a suit. The dress code in this field (and, particularly...

    Cheapest Way to Furnish a Studio in Seattle

    I moved into a new studio last night. Everything is great aside from not having any furniture (not including a blow up mattress, TV stand and a fold up chair). How's craigslist in Seattle? I only really have experience using it in the Bay Area. There also seems to be much more of an...

    Need A 36R Suit By Sunday

    To make a long story short, both my suits are being tailored and won't be available for another 7-10 days (when factoring in shipping--see below). I am moving by car from the Bay Area, CA to Seattle, WA from Friday to Saturday. I need a suit by Sunday morning. Unfortunately, my size is 36R...

    Seattle Neighborhoods?

    I'm moving to Seattle within a week (sudden job offer) for a minimum of 3 months. I'll be sleeping on a friend's couch until I can find a place (preferably a studio). I'm wondering what neighborhoods an early 20s young "professional" with an SF-approved mentality should look into. I...

    Moving to DC (directly out of college)

    Since it seems many of you have done it before or are currently working in DC, I thought I'd ask for a bit of advice. I recently graduated from a "top" university with a 3.8+ GPA. Without any job offers attractive enough to make me stay in the Bay Area, I've decided to move to DC to work on or...

    Email Signatures for the Unemployed and Looking

    Graduation season has past and as my job search begins I cannot help but feel vulnerable without my old email signature which denoted my university affiliation and (when I was working) place of work. Now unemployed and graduated, I have just my name, email, and phone number. In applying for...

    Yesterday morning I--rather unexpectedly--received an invitation for an interview this coming Monday (5 days from now) in Manhattan. Travel and lodging costs are covered by the organization (which will remain nameless for obvious reasons). I have two questions, Is this normal for a B.A...

    Entry-level Jobs in London for an American Political Science Major?

    After realizing that the career center at my university has a sort of Goldman or bust mentality, I thought I would throw this question to the SF big-timers. As a proto-smalltimer any advice would be well received. First, my background: I am an American Political Science major focusing on...

    Favorite Pilsner?

    What are you favorite pilsner beers? I live in Berkeley and there are quite a few local varieties out there--some of which I have ashamedly not tried. In my experience two have stood out: Trumer Pils and Pilsner Urquell. Unfortunately, due to the local Trumer Pils brewery, the bars in the area...

    Post-College Job Progression/History

    Out of curiosity, how did you get to where you are today? What jobs did you hold before your current position? Did you take any risks or did you "play it safe?"

    Briefcase In Your Early 20s?

    I recently started working in the Financial District of San Francisco and am looking to buy a new satchel/briefcase. I should note, I am relatively young (in my early 20s), but I don't feel particularly comfortable arriving with my old Northface backpack. Preferably, I would like this...
