Turning in my equality for an apron

Jul 24, 2008 12:08

I've applied to 40+ 50+ jobs since the second week in June when I was asked to consider moving to southern New Hampshire. I've received one two rejections and a bunch of automated "we'll check out your resume" e-mails.

No takers? Seriously?

It seems my degree is worth shit.

real life: job hunting, real life: work

Yeah takes on average 6 months to find a graduate job if you didn't have one lined up in your finale year.
Seems you are over qualified for the non-degree jobs and too much of a junior for the rest. Drove me up the wall, but by the end of it I had three jobs on one day (one I was working, one I was about to start and the third I was starting in 6 months that they asked me to start the following Monday). I'm still with that final job now (though it is driving me crazy lately).
So good luck! I hope it pours soon.

Haha... I've had my degree since 2001. Took me 4 years to get a job in my field (and I'm still there)... but I need a new job so I can move in with my boyfriend (he lives about 1 1/2 hours north of me). But I think the average of 6 months to find something is still the same. Ugh!
