Mayor Bloomberg gave me career advice. No biggie.

When I was at the Job Hunt press conference the other week, I asked Mayor Bloomberg his thoughts on whether or not it's okay to be selective with your job search, even if you're muy desperado like me. Turns out, not only is it OK, he encourages it! Check his response below, right from the Mayor's mouth!

It's funny, I'm pretty sure he assumed I was a recent college grad, but hey, I'm not complaining. Unfortunately, I was a hot ass mess back then, and now...six years later. Yikes. But, I'm not alone--it's crazy to think that even the mayor of New York struggled to pay rent at one time! I'm pretty sure every successful person has faced adversity at one time or another. Even Diddy.

So what do you think of the Mayor's advice? What's the best career advice you've ever received? And who's going to be tuning in to Job Hunt tomorrow night?!

Mayor Bloomberg risks his left index finger for New Yorkers on Groundhog Day: "It's just a part of being a full-service Mayor."

Wow, I've had such a fun day! I went to the press conference for Job Hunt this afternoon where Mayor Bloomberg announced the premiere of the show tonight. It was an intimate gathering, so I felt pretty cool to be invited. Just another day in life, right?!

Check out the vid below for the Mayor's story on how he risked his left index finger for all of us last year on Groundhog Day—now that's dedication. 

                 

I also asked the Mayor for his advice on my current unemployed sitch, but you'll have to check back later in the week to hear his response. He was super-cool, and stopped to take a few pics with me even though he was rushing off to his next appointment! Geeze, I'm starting to feel guilty that I blamed him for the fact that NYC is trying to turn me into a cupcake-gorging fat ass in this post. (Insert foot in mouth). I take it all back.

Ok, I'm off to yoga class—I need to hurry back so I can watch Job Hunt at 9pm!!!
