Now that I’m finished school (hell it actually started awhile ago, but for the sake of argument) it’s time for me to “Find a real job and be a productive member of society” and to that I reply :P~~~ and MAKE ME…LOL…kidding…save your breath mom… Looking for a job and actually finding a job are completely different. You don’t make money by looking (and if you have I haven’t figure that one out yet)…I have gotten to the point where I am applying not only to actual PR jobs, but also to jobs that are less than the PR I went to school for three years to learn (Tim Horton’s, Zellers, McDonald’s etc)…those places would be all fine and whatnot if I weren’t too “over-qualified” for said jobs…yeah, so because I’m newly finished college and have (will have) a diploma in Public Relations, most places don’t believe that I will stay in their minimum wage paying jobs and blah blah blah. Trust me people, I like have money but whatever. I will find something because I always do. So it’s not that easy for me to find a job in a place that I would/could have worked in high school or hell even college, but it’s even harder (or so it seems) for me to find an actual PR job (doing more than say folding clothes or serving food, because yes I know mother it’s all PR, but I DID NOT GO TO SCHOOL FOR THREE YEARS (in the PR program I mean) AND I DID NOT SINK MYSELF FURTHER AND FURTHER IN OSAP LOANS TO LEARN PUBLIC RELATIONS TO PUT IT TO USE AT A FREAKING TIM HORTON’S)…okay that part of the rant is over…LOL…I am finding tons of PR, Marketing & Communications, Publicity, etc jobs, but most places want a minimum of like 1-2 years experience in a similar position…yeah totally don’t have that, so it’s a matter of finding the jobs that do want someone right out of school or at least finding the ones that seem like a perfect (or as close to perfect as you can get) and applying for them anyway. Something will come along soon…hopefully…please?   ***Sidenote I totally got my “official” invitation to graduation today in the mail. Yay me***
