      <title>Carol, What are the most challenging aspects of your job at Office Depot?</title>
      <link>http://www.jobster.com/at/answer/view/125983?answer_class=AnswerBase</link>
      <description>Keeping up with a multi-channel and multi-faceted organization like Office Depot. Even though my current experience as a manager within our Online Marketing department is geared towards managing the web I still have to be conscious of our other channels of business to ensure a consistent message to the customer that could be shopping in more then one channel.</description>

      <title>Carol, What kind of job are you looking for?</title>
      <link>http://www.jobster.com/at/answer/view/297214?answer_class=AnswerBase</link>
      <description>Something that allows me to take my knowledge of online marketing to the next level and work on high level operational projects to improve site enhancement as well as external advertising (driving traffic to the site). Also combines strategy in the form of running an online business (reviewing company P&amp;L, etc.). In another 10 years I would love to start my own online retailer website. Anything that would help me learn the ins and outs to position myself for that ultimate goal would be great!
I am sure by that time though we will be on web 100.0:-)</description>

      <title>Carol, What profession other than yours would you like to try?</title>
      <link>http://www.jobster.com/at/answer/view/285253?answer_class=AnswerBase</link>
      <description>Author of fantasy fiction. I love books like Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings. Anything that takes people out of their day to day stress into another world is worth it.</description>

      <link>http://www.jobster.com/at/answer/view/285249?answer_class=AnswerBase</link>

      <title>Carol, What's your dream job?</title>
      <link>http://www.jobster.com/at/answer/view/189594?answer_class=AnswerBase</link>
      <description>Something that allows me to travel on a minimal scale (25%-30%) and gives me the ability to work in my pajamas from my home office when I am not traveling:-)
Just kidding (not really in regards to the traveling part).
My true dream job is working for a company that fosters learning and challenges you to be the best you can be but gives you the tools to do so. Having the ability to really be a contributor and creating an environment that is flexible for both learning and upward movement.</description>

      <title>Carol, What advice do you have for someone looking for their first job out of college?</title>
      <link>http://www.jobster.com/at/answer/view/189593?answer_class=AnswerBase</link>
      <description>Do not be afraid to really find out what your true calling is or what you enjoy doing and make that your career. Working in the real world is definitely a reality check and once you start moving up the corporate ladder it is harder to just reshift priorities and focus on something different.</description>
