Welcome to the first Career Shmeer! In case you’re wondering, a shmeer is a bunch of stuff that goes together – like cream cheese on a bagel. If you want everything thrown on your sandwich, when placing your order you can say, “give me the whole shmeer!” Well I’m not making sandwiches for you – but I’m giving you some great career-related links from the past week that, in the aggregate, make our first Career Shmeer! Hope you enjoy.
