Hey Megan, just stopped by to check out your site and saw this first post. Congrats on landing such a sweet gig! I’d definitely be interested to see how you like it. I was a basketball/volleyball girl growing up, so since becoming interested in writing/social media I’ve always kinda thought a job like this would be a great marriage of both passions. Congrats and can’t wait to see your dance moves!

I can’t tell you how happy I am Megan, seriously. You deserve this so much. You are an amazing person and they are VERY lucky to have you on board. We’ll have to share strategies – because starting a companies New Media program is exactly what I’ve been assigned with at North Shore Pediatrics. I’m sure there’s a lot we can learn from each other.

I’ll miss you, but know you will do great things in New York.

Way to go Megan. Sounds like just taking the initiative to go the Winter Meetings and network at Baseball Ground Zero put you ahead of thousands of others who just send out resumes and hope for the best.

I’m sure we’ll be able to follow your adventures in Baseball very closely. Just don’t let this get in the way of your fantasy football commissioner duties.

I’ve been through this. Here are some points I make when people ask me these things:

1. Job security is a myth. If you take a job you hate just for a paycheck, you will not perform at your optimum and you will risk getting fired, especially in a recession. Also, taking a job that may not be there in 6 months looks horrible on your resume. Both of these are detrimental to your career in the long-term.

2. Career management is at an all-time high. Everyone can find out whether you are passionate or not about their opportunity, just by reading your blog or following you on Twitter. Companies want people who know they are the perfect fit for the job, and if you take a job you weren’t a good fit for, you will forever have to explain why it’s on your resume when it didn’t fit your life plans.

I probably have some more ideas, but these are just a few thoughts! Good luck with both the job search and holding out for the right job.

Your site was extremely interesting, especially since I was searching for thoughts on this subject last Thursday.
