Free time is wasted time.
As I said before, mediocrity is not a desirable trait in today's workforce. If you graduated college and are having a difficult time finding the job you want, not working is NOT an option. Expand your horizons and think outside the box when it comes to finding your next job. You should be looking for ANY job that can help you gain experience in your desired field.Companies may not be hiring for the full-time positions you desire, but they may be hiring for entry-level, part-time positions that can help get your foot in the door and may even lead to future job offers. Interning and volunteer work are options available to you as well. These jobs can be great resume boosters, and can show future employers that even in times of economic hardship, you were still trying to get ahead and further your career.
Free time is wasted time. Employers don't look favorably on gaps in your job history. Fill those gaps with part-time work that helps you move forward toward fulfilling your ultimate goal of success.
