So, without much pomp and circumstance, as of St. Patrick’s Day 2011, I finally finished undergrad. I (un)officially have my degree in Public Relations & Advertising and I’ve been looking for jobs since last November.
I should be ecstatic…right?
So far, not so much. Been hard with job-hunting, and it’s not as though companies aren’t interested, but I can’t seem to get past the first interview. For someone that’s been told by each employer, including internships and colleges, I interview incredibly well. It’s been a hard pill to swallow, but I keep reminding myself that I’m not the only one out there desperate for a better job, it just gets daunting considering how badly I want to get out of Starbucks.
Well, let’s hope today’s applications to Google Chicago, Suburban Life, and Moore & Scarry are the big break I need.
Hopefully I’ll be a bit more enthusiastic once commencement comes along in June and find out whether I got accepted into DePaul’s graduate program for the fall.
Cheers all.
