Who else worked regular jobs and nothing related to a real career right after graduating from college?

Question by MyStEriOuS: Who else worked regular jobs and nothing related to a real career right after graduating from college?
I have a BS in Criminal justice and there are little to no entry level jobs in that area…especially b/c i have no experience.

It seems im going to just have to work at a bank or as a customer service rep.. =( Who else is going through a similar situation.??
Jason, your probably right..but from what i see every entry level job for criminal justice requires some type of experience be it internship..which i never did.

What is a good job opportunity in the midwest? I am willing to move anywhere, but need to find a career?

Question by Dan R: What is a good job opportunity in the midwest? I am willing to move anywhere, but need to find a career?
I have a BA in Communication and have spent 2 years in sales/customer service. I am willing to move anywhere in Illinois, Iowa, Indiana, Missouri or Wisconsin. I’d love to find a state job or an organization that offers a pension for long-term commitment, but can never seem to find anything. I don’t really care what I do, but I learn quick and work hard. Does anybody know of an opportunity that might be available to people willing to relocate?

Your guess is as good as mine. You do know the USA is having another great depression right now, don’t you? That is why I dread having to go back there. The only reason I ever go back there is because my parents are there, and as a single, unemployed girl, I have to keep going back and living them when I am jobless.

I mean, I hear these days of how now McDonald’s can even have their pick of applicants. Before, most people would not even try to work there, but now, places like Taco Bell get tons of applicants for 1 or 2 openings. Good luck to both of us. I say you should open up to the idea of even leaving the USA.

Should I work at firestone to start my auto tech career?

Question by Oscar: Should I work at firestone to start my auto tech career?
Alright so im going to universal trchnical institute to help me jump into my career as an automotive technician…I have VERY little experiece. I currently work at a call center making a decent paycheck. Firestone offered me a job as an entry level tech and I dont know if I should take it or not. I will be paid on flag time and I will take a pay cut going there. But my question is, would this be an ok job to start my career off?

Best answer:

Answer by Kelly
I think it’s a great place to start and get some solid experience. You don’t have to stay there very long, maybe 2 years or so unless you really like it. If you can still afford your bills with a pay cut, then take the job. Good luck!

Stephen Hawking, Dinosaurs & Microsoft: A Brief History of Nathan Mhyrvold’s Career

bigthink.com Modern Renaissance man Nathan Mhyrvold gives insight into his unique adaptability. Directed / Produced by Elizabeth Rodd and Jonathan Fowler Transcript: Nathan Myrhvold: You know, I’ve had the interesting career of training for many things and then having a career mostly in things I never trained for. After graduate school, I became a post doc with Steven Hawking, where we were working on quantum theories of gravity. Basically we were trying to understand the fundamental structure of space and time and where the universe came from. I took a leave of absence from that to work on a software project. It was supposed to be for three months and it turned out to be for the rest of my life. After a couple of months working on the software project, we decided to start a company; I became the CEO of that company. We ran the company for two years. Then Microsoft bought us, and I became the first Technology Officer at Microsoft, where I was for 14 years. I worked directly for Bill Gates and was able to participate in the PC revolution. It was a magic time because software, through personal computing, empowered literally billions of people to take charge of the information in their lives, to be creative, whether it was with a word processor or a spreadsheet or an art package, leading up ultimately to the internet, which is the ultimate information distribution system for the planet. Now, along the way, I’ve been interested in a dozen other things. I’ve always been

Answer by TI
Few months of gap between the Jobs can be explained but not working after your degree for 3 years requires some convincing explanation.
Did you do any business at home or does your family has some business in which you contributed something. Many people start their own business or go to college so that they can come back and take care of family business. Once they think that their family business can be taken care by someone else they can go back and get new experiences.

Have you ever worked? If not you may have to compromise and take a job with a BPO or in sales at the junior level. Once you have job its easier to claim you were doing additional things more relevant to what you want to do than what you are actually doing. Just make sure you have all the answers related to that.

What do you think? Answer below!

It depends on your level of knowledge with computers. You could could get some computer certifications like Microsofts MCSE or Cisco Certifications.
