当我在大一期间研究所有关于 Work and Travel USA 的信息时,我以为找工作机会(offer)简直是小菜一碟。不,我并不是觉得会有人把它送到我手上,但我手里有那么多的方法和案例,以至于我对自己成功充满信心。所以,当协调员说我们不能通过代理机构寻找工作机会(因为我们出发太晚)时,我甚至还嘲笑了他。 我从十二月底开始在 j1jobs.com 上寻找。起初,我只投递我喜欢的职位,一个月后,我开始投递所有能找到的职位。没有回复。大约在二月份,我开始与一位雇主通信,后来发现他是个骗子(感谢代理机构论坛提供的信息)。还有另一位看起来很可靠,但与他沟通起来非常复杂。在第一封邮件中,他就提到了大量的面试、在线培训等等。此外,工作地点在拉斯维加斯(相信我,我真的不想去那里),工作内容是销售一些不知名的儿童玩意儿,比如魔法玩具(我甚至没记住名字,打开他们的网站时我被吓坏了 :D)。在那之后,我没能和任何人达成协议,总共只收到了大约五个拒绝信,但它们至今还在发过来,尽管我已经很久没去那里看过了 ;) 下一步,与之前并行的是 craigslist.org。作为一个看美国电影长大的女孩,我想去哪里?不,不是洛杉矶。是加利福尼亚,你猜对了。Ulyana 的妈妈在纽约和旧金山有大学同学,所以我们决定去后者。这就是我在 Craigslist 上重点关注的地方。这太可怕了。我遵循了所有的建议,但什么结果也没有。甚至连回复都没有。恐慌开始了……我在论坛上读到,在旧金山找工作机会是徒劳的。我开始在整个东海岸寻找,因为我再次读到西海岸没什么可做的。我绝对不想去中部,因为整个夏天只工作显然不适合我 ;) 随着与雇主的交流,我开始明白应该回复什么样的广告以及如何回复。我早就放弃了传统的求职信模板,只是直接告诉他们我是学生,需要一份暑期工作,如果他们感兴趣,可以在附件中找到我的简历,如果不感兴趣,那就算了。事实证明这有效得多。另外,我开始在那里搜索 "summer",这立即引出了更合适的选择。多亏了这一切,机会开始出现。但这发生在二月底,当时我已经彻底绝望,从 VK 上一个女孩那里买了一个纽约的工作机会。确认后付款,所以这让我有机会继续寻找。 最让我难忘的是一位女士,她非常同情我的故事,告诉我她曾经接待过交换生,并想尽一切办法帮助我。她安排了 Skype 面试,但是……当她开始说简短的句子时,我听得很清楚,但当她开始热情地滔滔不绝地向我介绍工作时,连接开始中断……这太可怕了,我向她解释我听不清,她说 "ok" 然后重新开始。又是同样的情况……正如你所猜到的,我没能得到那份工作 :( 后来同时出现了两个选择:一个是佛罗里达州的一家餐厅,另一个是新泽西州的一家快餐店。我当然想去餐厅,所以一直在积极与雇主沟通。但他们几乎同时没了下文……我没有绝望,继续使用 Craigslist,但没有合适的回复,我很沮丧,大约两周后我给他们俩写了信,问他们怎么能粉碎我的梦想,没有他们的帮助我哪儿也去不了,我们需要工作机会才能出发。第一个人立即回应,并开始要求各种照片。但在发送每一张照片后,他都需要另一张。这让我开始感到烦躁。这时第二个人(他叫 Ken)回复说他去度假了,深表歉意,并说他明天就会给我发工作机会!!我简直高兴坏了!!我提醒他我也需要给我朋友一份工作机会。他说如果他的学生中有人拒绝,他可以给她开一份。我再次写信给他,说我们想一起去工作。他动了恻隐之心,给了她一份工作机会,但没有工时(我从没想过雇主会同意自己伪造一份)。他向我保证她到达后会找到工作。我感谢他的帮助,他回答说他可以给她兼职。我更热烈地感谢了他,随后他问我们想要多少工时。在工作机会中他写了 30 小时,我不想惹恼他,所以说 30 小时对我们刚开始来说足够了,并询问了以后增加工时的可能性。他说可以多拿一些,他会给我们俩全职工作!!当我告诉所有朋友这件事时,他们简直惊呆了,称我为真正的外交官^^ 我们的求职就这样结束了:新泽西州海岛市 (Sea Isle City, NJ)! 我还想提一下另一种找工作的方法——Google Earth。对我个人来说没用,但我尝试了一小段时间,当时我还在试图在旧金山找点什么。也许有人真的能通过这种方式在美国找到未来的工作 ;)

Barrier island routines shape daily life here, where wide beaches meet quiet off-season streets.
Founded on Ludlam Island by Charles K. Landis, the community developed around Landis Avenue and Victorian landmarks like The Colonnade Inn. Coastal storms have repeatedly redrawn the waterfront, most notably when a destructive nor'easter created a permanent dune line that forced oceanfront properties inland by a full block. Winter brings flooding risks that can submerge causeways and isolate the barrier beach.

The municipality undergoes an extreme seasonal transformation between quiet winter months and the crowded summer stretch from Memorial Day to Labor Day. Summer relies on Atlantic City Jitneys patrolling Landis Avenue, while the paved Promenade serves as an active bicycle corridor during designated morning hours. Diamondback terrapins cross roadside embankments to nest, requiring caution signs across town.
Public spaces center on Excursion Park and the marina corridor along JFK Boulevard, where wind and solar systems power public lighting. Year-round residents rely on a modest collection of neighborhood grocers, diners, and historic fish markets, while regional bus links face weight caps at Townsend Inlet Bridge. Off-season living demands self-reliance as beach amenities close and icy sea winds sweep the island.
