Would you apply for this job?
May. 20th, 2003 09:47 amSo the posting reads in part:
Description: Full time (9-5, M-F) position. Research and respond to reference requests, using both print and internet sources. Some shelving/filing may be required. Organize materials and coordinate
continuing education classes. Some accounting work as well. Help
brainstorm/implement changes in services and procedures.
Qualifications: Looking for a friendly, understanding (our patrons have varied levels of insurance knowledge), dedicated, and detail oriented person. Bachelors degree required, MLS preferred. Excellent customer service, organizational and reference/research skills required. Familiarity with the Insurance Industry highly desired. Must be computer literate. Experience with Quick books and Microsoft Access a big plus. Knowledge of different cataloging programs also beneficial.
Salary: DOE mid 20's to low 30's plus benefits and possible tuition reimbursement.
(end of excerpt)
Now, they're looking for someone with a BA and maybe a Master's degree, or someone they will sponsor through a Master's program, not someone like me with a Master's and 15+ years' experience, but I have to wonder how many people they're going to get applying when they want to pay $25K-30K.
I would sure like to get back to full-time librarianship, instead of half-time librarian, half-time administrative support, but not at the expense of my pocketbook, thanks very much!
