Not really, no.

So job title doesn't matter at all, only where you work? You intern at a company, that's identical to having years of experience there doing a different job?

Believe it or not, job recruiters are a lot more interested in what you actually did in a job than they are in the job title. So being an "intern" is not going to be "very different on a CV" from an "assistant librarian" if they both basically involve being a dogsbody.

^This. Let's not forget that Marten's job is not an actual librarian position or even close to it. It would be like taking a lab technician position when you're trying to become a professor with your own lab at a university. It's just not going to do anything for your chances.

I get the feeling that Jeph has writte himself a bit into a corner with Claires jobsearch. Where in the comicuniverse would she get a "real" job for her qualification - without moving and thus leaving the comic ?
dutchrvl:
hm, well, generally speaking every town tends to have a library, plus there are multiple unis and colleges in the surrounding area, especially if you expand it to up to 1 hour drive.
I personally think eventually there will be a shift in jobs occurring with Claire eventually ending up at Smif though.
