Every week we ship an email newsletter featuring the region’s most exciting career opportunities. We’ve lovingly called it This Week in Jobs (aka TWIJ — “twidge”). Below is this week’s edition; it’s meant to live in your inbox. Sign up for the newsletter here.
It’s officially peak bloom.
We’re in the middle of the National Cherry Blossom Festival in Washington DC, a four-week celebration of Japanese culture, spring and the color pink. The festival goes back 113 years to 1912, when DC received a gift of 3,000 cherry trees from the mayor of Tokyo. While it’s the largest cherry blossom festival in the US, cherry blossoms are in bloom all over greater Philly, Baltimore, and Pittsburgh, too, so don’t forget to enjoy them!
The blossoms are confirmation that the cold, hard winter is over, a symbol of hope. Just the energy you’ll need for your job search.
