It’s your biggest fear. You’ll graduate college, get a job, and begin life as Bill Murray in Groundhog Day. Every day will be the same. Different. But the same. Hell on Earth will begin at 22 years old. We don’t want that to happen to you. That’s why we write about a new and exciting company’s entry-level jobs every day. Today’s “job” isn’t much of a job, but you have to forgive us for celebrating one of our favorite holidays. So, if you’re not interested in becoming part of the inner circle of the Punxsutawney Groundhog Club, take a look at our Past Jobs or our Online Job Search Blog and start formulating a plan so you don’t end up trapped like Bill Murray. On the other hand, if you’re interested in wearing a stove pipe hat and handling rodents on cold February mornings, read on.

By the time this is posted, Punxsutawney Phil will already have determined whether we’ll be seeing an early Spring or not. Since I have the blog set to auto-post this, and I’m on my way to Costa Rica to fly fish for sailfish right now, I don’t immediately care about when Spring comes, but when I return, I’ll sure be hoping that Phil didn’t see his shadow. With that said, it appears that the inner circle of the club is a more “mature” group of men (no ladies, maybe you can be the first!) who are nearing retirement age, so we figure they need to recruit fresh blood. The good news is that becoming a member of the Punxsutawney Groundhog Club is as easy as paying a $10 annual membership fee. Don’t you wish getting a job were that easy? Maybe it will be, joining a club is what we call networking.

Now the Punxutawney Groundhog Club is a non-profit organization that is clearly geared toward maintaining tradition and developing commerce in the Punxsutawney, PA area. They aren’t actually hiring, and we don’t think they even have jobs, but you never know. If you really love groundhogs, have great animal care skills, or look great in a top hat, you might be able to convince them to create a job for you.

One last note: the only requirement for jobs at the Punxsutawney Groundhog Club is that you are bilingual (at least if you ever want to be President of the Inner Circle). You must speak “Groundhogese.”

Note: On April 27th we revisited entry-level jobs at Punxsutawney Groundhog Club.
