What Are your career goals and how higher education will help you get there?
Will graduate school pay off?
Should you go to graduate school immediately after completing your bachelor's degree?
Aren't these the questions you have been asking yourself lately?
Student internship or volunteer during the summer, semester or upon graduating: Interning or volunteering in your field is one of the best ways to get some real experience in the career you want and boost your resume!
Many companies are more willing to hire a candidate right out of college if they have at least had some relevant experience in the field through internships or other part-time work.
Look for smaller companies for your first full time job : in many fields, it can be easier to land a position in the field in smaller , local companies. Depending on the size of your city or town , you may even know some of the people working in the field that interests you. It can be often easier to land a position with the small company in order to get the experience and expertise you need to move into a larger institution.
Think about your connections and networks : Think about your parent[s careers,an aunt that works in a a bank, a friend in advertising , ect. and ask them for advice about how to get into the field. You can also ask them to let you know if they hear of any available positions within their company or in smaller ones.
