It’s a small career article writing world, after all…
The name was familiar, but I thought I’d just been seeing it over and over again on Yahoo! HotJobs. Caroline Levchuck. Frequent contributor of some very insightful, thematically timely articles such as the New Year’s-focused Four Ways to Make Job Resolutions Work (one of the most recent examples).
It so happened that I was checking out her Movies to Inspire Your Career Goals article with my wife and business partner Lani sitting next to me, and she suddenly blurted out, “Caroline! That’s Caroline!”
And then it came back. Maybe seven years or so ago, while working for a company called Next Press, Caroline gave Lani one of her first big freelancing jobs. Six dozen or so biographies for the Contemporary Authors series, 1200 words each, turned over to the Gale Publishing Group.
That assignment passed, and Lani moved on to Content Strategy for the girls websites at Mattel. But they were destined to keep crossing paths, most recently in New York earlier this year.
And somehow, this whole HotJobs gig never came up! Maybe because she’s got a ton of other things going on, too, including a stint at a culinary school where Caroline had been a student. I’ve never spoken to her, but from what Lani tells me, she’s a dynamic woman with tons of talent and drive.
In other words, I shouldn’t have been as surprised as I was when Lani made me suddenly realize whose byline I’d been coming across over and over again this year.
