This past week I have been applying to a ton of jobs, my main focus when searching for jobs was something pertaining to my degree, but Sociology is such a broad major that I could do practically anything. So then I focused on what I have already done work wise and what other jobs I could find with these experiences because now days that all jobs look at is the experience you gained and how experienced you really are. So for me it's Office Work and Barista life. I enjoyed Barista life, but with loans coming up and wanting to travel I knew that I wouldn't make much so Office jobs it was. Office jobs make a decent amount plus added benefits that are MUCH NEEDED. Every morning I would be on Craigslist, Indeed, and my University's job site finding suitable matches for me. I applied to Goodwill as an "Employee Counselor" and I thought it was an awesome job since I want to create a non-profit that helps young adults find jobs or possible college enrollments. I got a phone interview thru HR Dept. but she recommended a secretary position instead because I don't have Case Manager experience (sigh). She mentioned that it would be a good foot in the door to lead to Case Manager and also potential state jobs. So I took her suggestion, applied, had an interview, and as of today I'm EMPLOYED as a Secretary! I'm truly excited and grateful. It took a lot of patience as well as rejections but I believe that my luck is turning up -- Mars is finally getting out of RETROGRADE!! So once I complete the paperwork, I will be able to start working and saving $$!
