Tequila Tequila!

Yes, I too flip through a magazine while in the bathroom. And in doing so, I stumbled upon a little tequila contest, called Tequila 1800. If you’re a creative person who loves the now and again (or now, now, now, again, and later) shot of tequila, this is certainly a contest that you can thrive for.

Job Searching Tips: Company Ratings, Reviews and Salaries

Job Searching Tips: Company Ratings, Reviews and Salaries

GlassDoor.com is a site that will give you more insight into a company if you so desire to know more. Users can log in and provide info about companies such as ratings, reviews, and salaries. You can also take a look at what others have to say about their companies, which could be really helpful when researching a new job.

So far, they’ve already heard from employees at over 11,000 different companies from around the world, spanning across 80 countries. It sounds like a lot, but there are a ton of companies not in their database, which is where you can chip in. Post a review or salary of some of the companies of you worked for recently and help other people decide if they really want to work there. I can’t even begin to tell you how many times this service could have been useful to me in the past.

New Design for Aimless Direction

How do you like the new design? I really liked this theme, because it’s still simple, just like the old design and it has some new features. A little tweaks here and there and it was ready to go. As you can see, it now has a section for latest posts, a blogroll (which I will be udpating) and a search bar.

Michelle and I aren’t sure what to do with the header image just yet, but she’s working on something. I found the image that’s up there right now just by doing a few quick searches on some stock photography sites and thought it looked pretty cool, so I cropped it and put it there as a sort of placeholder for now. So I’m really happy with the new site, but what do you think about it?
