Re: Graduated Yet Unemployed

In general, finding a job is about relationships. Most jobs are found because someone you know alerted you to an opening.

Also, it will universally take time to get a job after graduating. Many companies don't hire fresh grads. Those that do sometimes hire a big bunch, and fire the less capable ones after 3, 6, 9 months.

This goes back a long time, but I had my first (!) interview in August, and didn't get the offer until October. In the Human Resources world, things always take longer than they do.

Take the time to continue your education. You've learned about (engineering maybe?) and now know how to teach yourself most anything. Teach yourself how to get a job. There are a LOT of resources out there - books, people, web pages - treat it like Machine Design or Circuit Theory and learn the science as best you can, then execute.
