Possible career problem?
So I just graduated from college...
I've had several job offers that I haven't taken. The thing is I think I actually don't like the field I would be going into.
Honestly, I would rather be doing just a general labor job and work outside or something, something that doesn't give me to much responsibility or mental stress on a daily basis. My degree is computer science (web developer jobs for me mostly) I've found that with all my interviews it feels like I'm given to much responsibility and the company could fall and lose a ton if I slip up on one thing (most of the places are advertising and publishing companies),
I don't exactly know where to go to find a general labor job, I don't have any kind of network and the way I have been finding jobs is through the internet but I can't find those types of jobs on the job sites.
Can you guys give me your views and opinions?

Be a gold miner. People need those, right? *Thumbs Up* |

Try searching for jobs on the state unemployment site, and keep your eyes open for help wanted signs. Ask your friends for leads on jobs that are the kind of job you want. You might also consider flagger training if you just want to work outside. You could also try sales - there are a lot of entry-level openings for salespeople if you are good with people. Finally, try your local temp agencies. Just some suggestions. |
