I joined this listserve last year and have been following some trends a bit but primarily focused on the jobs and internships.  I have bookmarked few websites that focuses on museum employment openings.  Also for internships, both paid and unpaid. I am in my final semester as a graduate student in museum studies program at Syracuse University and will be graduating this May.  I am quite anxious about finding a job or internship somewhere and I am very ware of the difficult economical climate that we are experiencing right now. I would like to know if there are any good museum employment/professional network websites that I may have overlooked.  I want to state that I have drawn my job search plan with a list of cities I would like to obtain either employment or internship this coming summer or later.  Before I list those cities, I am not limiting myself to those cities as I am open to almost anywhere but I hope to land in any of my preferred cities.  Here is the list of cities below:

Boston, Toronto, Washington D.C., Chicago, Minneapolis/St.Paul, Denver, Seattle, Portland, San Francisco, Oakland, Los Angeles, San Diego, and Australia (any major city there).  

It may seem as a real grand plan and the reason for that is my preference for a decent public transit system.  Again, I can't limit myself to that as I have to accept what is out there.  Your feedback here will be greatly appreciated. 

Best,
