National Podcast Post Month (NaPodPoMo)

I know.

Let me start by saying, I know I need another project like I need a hole in my head. I struggled with this one all the way up to the last minute. Well, actually the second day. I wasn’t even going to do this. Where might I post a podcast every day, for 30 days? I already have my mostly music podcast. I do a monthly conference call with the New Media Cincinnati folks. I already have a production schedule for How I Got My Job.

Last week I came to the conviction that I wanted to start blogging more. I probably posted more on all my blogs last week than I had in quite some time. The key has been coming up with interesting, compelling content.

This past Monday, at the Job Search Focus Group of Hyde Park in Cincinnati, I came to a realization. There was a woman named Paula Frank, who shared her job search success with the group. One of the keys for her was practicing how to answer interview questions. I remembered interviewing Brent Hosier for How I Got My Job, and he said the same thing.

I could practice answering job interview questions every day in November as part of NaPodPoMo at getthatjobonline.com

Over the weekend I’d started playing more with Windows Movie Maker again, having been inspired by some of the SummitUp videos Kevin Dugan recently produced. As with the start of my other new media works, there has been a lot of work up front to get theme, titles, etc., and the entire work process together to make it as efficient and (hopefully) take the least amount of extra time.
