While I may be an official college graduate as of this past weekend, I am still in the process of trying to find a new job. I have applied to a few name brand PR agencies to no avail, but I am also trying to line other work up while I hear back from more potential employers.
The one thing I’m finding out from the whole of this experience is that persistence is key. No, that doesn’t mean constantly harassing others to gain a personal advantage. Rather, the market, especially for creative and communication professionals, is very difficult to navigate through right now. I am constantly trying to find different career paths and rethinking my strategy as a whole.

I’ve essentially set myself up such that if nothing happens by my birthday in early June, that I will have to take a part time job somewhere - ANYWHERE! Let’s hope I find something by then. As I said before, I am still in talks with different people and organizations ranging from part-time grunt work to full-time full advantages. C’mon already, I wanna work!
