SAME😩 up at 7 in the morning cause your worried cause you dont know what you want to do 😩or trying to figure out whats the next move like i have options just dont want to pick the wrong one
This is why I immediately started working after graduating high school. Community college and Trade school is beneficial to. But moral is that experience and skills are important than a degree.
@@aniyah_nashee It’s brutal to be honest, but 1.) Apply, apply , apply (for context, I sent well over 100 applications within a six month span.) 2.) Reach out to employers directly if you can. 3.) Use every recruiter site possible; Linkedin, Handshake, Indeed, zip recruiter. 4.) Search for part time positions if possible since there are more reasonable to hire a college student. 5.) Negotiate (companies love to rip people off so if you’re really to do the same job as someone else for less pay then a company may be willing to take you on. For context, the position I got was marked for $30 dollars an hour but I offer to work for $16 instead and their were more than happy to rip me off… I mean give me work experience. 6.) I made my resume sound better than it was, I made it seem like I work with computers at my old job which was a server position when in reality I just use a machine to ring up customer food tickets. 7.) I change my school schedule to make this job/internship work with my school schedule. I made sure to take classes online when I can and when I had to take them in person, I took them at night mostly or only on two days of the week. If I were to say securing internships and part time jobs during college was easy, I’ll be lying. It took be six months to find my first career focus job and I had to do a lot to get it from be willing to work for less, change my school schedule and altering my resume.
@@aniyah_nashee one more thing I would like to add, be ok to accept an internship that’s outside your major because any internship is a good internship!!!
@@aniyah_nashee I listed some helpful tips. For record, I spent nearly six months after sophomore year applying to hundreds of jobs across all sorts of job sites to finally obtain a revenant job which I can currently working at as I finish my degree in the upcoming months. 1.) Apply, apply, apply, (for context: I applied to over 100 applications from LinkedIn, Indeed, Zip Recruiter and Handshake) 2.) Don’t be afraid to apply to actual job postings and part time postings (I actual got my internship through applying for a normal job and negotiating my way into the position.) 3.) Rewrite your resume using key terms (My previous job was as a server but I included skill sets just as Mangement and bookkeeping to better appeal to the job I was applying for.) 4.) Network (I attended dozens of random events across my city just to spread my name in hopes of obtaining a reverent internship within my career. 5.) Negotiate with the job posting (I originally apply for a position offering 26 dollars an hour but offer to do the same work for 16 which helps boost my chances with the position. 6.) Rearrange your school schedule (In order to work a job during college, I may sure to take a few online courses when I can and try to set all my classes within two days during the week which made it easier to work a job/internship. 7.) Don’t be afraid to apply for internships outside of your major. Any internship experience is good experience and helps obtain the next internship/job much more easily.

I remember when I finished college 8 years ago. I have a bachelor in animation, an associate grade in graphic designs, but when I finished college in 2016, I didn't know what to do after I finished, I was looking for many jobs, even in graphic designs, later they're gonna me, 🙄🙄🙄🙄😒😒😒 Yeah right. That's all ever say, "We'll call you". Also I can't have a job because I have no experience, how are you gonna get a job if you don't have experience? Also I don't think it's fair you can't get a job about something you learned in college.
I think that college shouldn’t be pushed upon students by teachers and society… each person has their own path and college isn’t for everyone Though I do value education and my own degree, but I don’t know if I would’ve chosen this path of it weren’t for societal expectations 😊
Me currently struggling to find work after graduating and trying to figure out life at the same time it’s too much 😫

100% true! There’s no guarantee in sight😭 A lowkey scam lol
I never wanted to go straight to college after HS, as much as every adult in my life tried to make me. I got told I dodged a bullet.
That’s a huge problem that I have with college to this very day.
10 year experience is crazy I thought it was 2-3 years
I think she was exaggerating
That’s why you need internships during college, I’m so glad I did a bunch of paid internships while studying before I graduated.
How did you go about getting them? I’m out of college but current students might value this info!🙂

Thankyou so much.God will help us find the right mentorship

Oh hey… that’s why I didn’t go to college.
Time still goes by, might as well get a degree earlier than later
Yeah I’m doing a trade or something
What otherw things go into getting a high paying job ?
Networking is a big one! It’s all about who you know now n days + experience level
