Was It the Girl Scouts That Said: Be Resourceful?
Although I am still a while away from my college graduation date, the thought of being in the "real world" absolutely terrifies me. I am financially independent from my parents and have been for quite some time, but there's nothing that makes me cringe more than thinking about having to find a career. That's right, not a part-time job anymore... a career.So in order to combat the anxiety, I plan to look for openings within my field. I will have a polished resume, cover letter and references to boot. And if that, coupled with my insatiable charm and wit doesn't win over prospective employers, then I see nothing wrong with turning to a recruiter for some extra help.
I think that often times college grads take available resources for granted. Whether your degree is in business, medicine, arts & sciences... having people around with REAL experience can offer invaluable advice. Taking advantage of those opportunities can only help you as you make your way into life after college.
And while being an undergrad is exciting and fun, I look forward to the day when I ace that interview and have the people around me to thank for helping me get there.
