What I Did Today

Today I found and posted a number of jobs to CTP’s skill center page. I spent some time looking for remote jobs but didn’t want to get too carried away from other tasks as it got closer to the first hour. I managed to find 3 and then later in the day I found more. Next, I worked on improving my typing speed as per my profession skills development goal. I am trying to take into account my average typing speed since sometimes it can vary, and I think today was a slower day since I was a little bit tired. For much of the rest of the time, I focused on ERG email outreach. Many of the outreach methods involve filling out a contact form, but sometimes the contact form has field presets that don’t align with the outreach template, or other limitations such as a character limit. I tried to work around these limitations as best as I could, or look for a general inquiry email address instead if possible. In practice, I ended up skipping around the document for different companies a lot of the time. Carrie mentioned that some of the companies I reached out to already responded on the same day, and she was able to follow up with them, so it felt good seeing my contributions come to fruition like that. I’m glad to be able to help.
