Can any one offer some resources? I've been out of school for a year, I have a Bachelor's. I'm computer literate, reliable, dependable but I don't have experience. All I've been able to find is a job in retail. Retail! Somebody p lease help me find someplace to start, someplace to find companies willing to give someone a shot. |

I'm glad to know I'm not the only one in this position.
I graduated a year ago with an MBA and the only job I could find was working the front desk at a hotel. After 9/11 they cut back everyone's hours and I had to move on. I now work for family and HATE my job. I wish my university had prepared me for the possibility of not finding a job instead of treating everyone like they were entitled to an incredible job after graduation.
Any suggestions other than temp/contract work? I can't afford to not have a job, but can't do temp/contract when I have a full time job.
I've tried networking and have once again started looking online. The hardest thing for me is finding what jobs I'm qualified for. As a previous message said, I'm either significantly over qualified or significantly under qualified.
Thanks for your help.
