I graduated from college with minimal references, no internships, basically no work experience that was resume appropriate, no help from the career center at my college and no groups or accomplishments of note I did in college that would help me find a job. I had a meeting with a career counselor at the school and she, upon hearing this, tried to recommend to me retail management
Within six weeks after graduating I had received two job offers (one which is my current job) that were far better than anything I had expected to receive. Basically I waited until the last minute but then as soon as I graduated I worked for several days straight to make the most out of my resume than I applied to every single job that was possible day and night. I picked supply chain as a field (my degree was in finance) and just resume spammed like a mother fucker. I went to job sites like glassdoor and indeed and I searched over city and government job websites, hospitals etc basically things I imagined would have possible openings in supply chain and would require a lot of employees.
Went to a bunch of interviews, talked to job placement experts etc most of it turned out to bs. In fact I ended up with a few interviews that within seconds were obvious pyramid schemes. Even when its complete shit you gain experience, confidence and some funny stories for your friends.
Basically I learned two things. First tap your friends, family, drunk strangers you meet at bars or parties hard. Not only the opportunities they have but the ones they know about, their friends have, theyve heard about, everything. Get social, even if its not your thing
Two, apply to every single online job you would be remotely interested in taking regardless of whether you meet the qualifications or not. Just get on your computer and stay up all night spamming applications.
