I Need a Job

I don't think I know what Im doing. Maybe I need like a job search mentor or something because Im obviously doing this wrong. Maybe I need someone to edit my resume to make it look more versatile. There should be job search training courses in college. Unless finding jobs are just this hard.

The old catch 22, companies want experience, but you can't get experience until someone gives you a job. A good resume will go far, professional appearance when interviewing. They always ask where you see yourself in ten years; In my case I can say dead and be OK, you will have to come up with something.

Keep it one page and be sure to point out your interests and hobbies. Don't set your goals for the next 10 years high on the resume or you will talk yourself out of a job.

@bigjohndl Its one page so im good there but maybe the presentation could look better or maybe more simple. Mine is stylized because I studied graphic design, so I guess its fine for design jobs but not for others.

oh, and 1 other thing. Make sure your social media accounts are pure vanilla. HR hate people who may provoke drama in the workplace.
