A job interview

ninjawife — Tue, 30 Jun 2020 21:42:58 GMT

My daughter will be getting her master's in heritage studies from Cambridge University this summer and after applying to 20+ jobs she got an interview with the Manhattan DA's office as an adviser for crimes related to antiquities trafficing. It has been a struggle for her to get an interview since many museums are not operating and this would be her dream job. Even if she doesn't get it she is happy to get some interview experience.

@ninjawife Although not her preferred role, working with antiquities trafficking could be fascinating work, AND, a great experience. I hope she gets it, but if not, I'm sure she will eventually find a perfect fit.

Congratulations to her on the advanced degree. No doubt you're a proud mom.

@ninjawife Saying a prayer that if it is meant to be she will get this job. If she doesn't I always have believed that something better is waiting in the wings for her.

Fingers crossed . . .

@ninjawife " Manhattan DA's office as an adviser for crimes related to antiquities trafficing."

A few years ago, I remember watching American Greed on art theft regarding art auctions in NYC. The Manhattan PD Art fraud unit was profiled. If I am not mistaken, Manhattan has the only police department dedicated soly to art fraud & antiquities trafficing in the country if not the world.

Wishing your daughter "good luck!"

@Mz iMac Yes, I loved that epi of Greed. The FBI seemed to have quite a unit in that area of crime.

@ninjawife Would the Brits hire your daughter?
