On of our members has asked me to inquire of the group a series of questions. Rather than to post them in a long thread, I am going to take each question and offer it separately. I believe that will make it easier for for later reference and aggregation. With this series, PLEASE RESPOND TO THE LIST. I am not the one who came up with these. Just trying to protect the anonymity of the poster such that that person has no ramifications from the current employer of record. QUESTION ONE How long should a newcomer to the museum world stay at their first job? From what I have read, most museums want applicants to have at least two to five years of experience in the museum under their belt for their vacant positions.
