It’s not always easy to admit one's introverversion. We do live in a world that values extroversion, which is clear when you look at the job-hunting process. Advice-seeking introverts are told to speak confidently about one’s strengths during a job interview and to charm your future colleagues with scintillating small talk. This is easier said than done for introverts, who are inherently uncomfortable with being the center of attention, and who would rather have a tooth pulled than be forced to small talk with strangers.

The NewsGuild of New York, the union for media professionals, is looking for an experienced front desk receptionist to greet members and visitors, support staff and manage daily administrative and clerical tasks. 

Meredith Corporation yesterday announced the sale of Sports Illustrated—a longstanding NewsGuild of New York-represented publication—to Authentic Brands Group, a global brand development, marketing and entertainment company.
