I'm Alvina, a recent college grad with big dreams.

Job search 2011…. FML

I thought this feeling of anxiety would end after college, but boy was I wrong. I have been searching for a full time position since before I actually graduated, but since June I have intensified my search and broadened my scope of potential occupations. I know the market for jobs is not really great right now, but come on!!! why can’t i find a freakin’ job!!! FML I know I am capable for the jobs I apply for, and even over qualified for others, but employers get a stack of resumes, so I’m sure they just breeze over mine. It’s sad that I get excited when potentials employer emailing me back saying I’m not the right fit, because I feel like they might have actually at least taken the time to look over my resume. ugh the best lead I have right now is a part-time waitressing gig at a local bar… whoa, so much for a college degree…
