Ha! It better get better wayyy before Dec., like when my student loans really start to kick in (March and April would be fine).
Ive put in over 20 resumes for ads Ive seen in the paper, and who knows how many over the internet. Most of the ads for anything I have noticed want you to have an AAS (so they dont have to pay you squat) or a Masters degree. What happened to the days when a BA or BS was good enough? At first I thought it was only me, but then i heard from friends and other people....its everywhere. Your lucky if you even get a phone call for an interview. I also went to staffing/temp places and the woman told me all the agencies in the area have been really slow. No one is hiring. But nina if your if your in the B-school I dont think you have anything to worry about. It seems that the jobs that are available are in the fields of finance, sales, IT, and social work (group homes). Even the kids who have education degrees are hvaing it tough in my area. Most are only subbing if they can get that. phone havent been ringing off the hook (one girl is even working at Wendy's part-time for the time being). However, Extra did a thing on the economy and said it should be in decent shape and people should be hiring by summer. Most realize they laid off too many people or need more. So there is some hope!
