In this state if you dont work for a union or the state it's hard for you to pull together some cash, so im jumping on the bandwagon to see if I can find one of these jobs. I just wish employers who aren't union or state would treat their employees with more respect and give them the raises and benefits as it says in their policy.

Im in the same boat. I graduated in May 09 with my BA... and im working two part jobs (both in retail). Everyone I talk to says the same thing... "You picked a great time to graduate." And its really hard to find something 'entry level' now too. I am able to pay my bills on time though with these part time jobs, so i really cant complain too much.

 

And thank you for creating this thread, Maksim. This will deff help with landing a full time career.

indeed.com is nice. try linkup.com it searches the companies' own job boards, kind of indeed does for big boards.

My wife and I are trying to change jobs right now. I'm an Operations Supervisor (warehouse) and I'm looking to move up and she's a Unix Sys Admin. so anyone know of anything anywhere, let me know. and I'd be glad to help anyone else with job hunting or whatever other advice.
