Default Any Comm. Majors? I just graduated and needs suggestions to finding work.....

around this area!


Well my main focus was PR, but as eveyrone knows that has this major, is that its real general, and it can work for jobs like marketing, sales, etc.

I also thought about trying to get into being a recruiter, as a buddy of mine is one, and says it would be right up my alley. (already tried to get a job at his place, he/they faked).

Does anyone have any suggestions, or places i should apply to in the area that would be a good start for a guy like me? Entry-level, anything???


Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Comm major? Burger King. Before you think I'm an asshole, consider that to be a step up from McDonald's or Taco Bell.

In all seriousness, check out Apple One (recruiting) as I know for a fact they are hiring.

be prepared to do something you don't like / not interested in for a while as you find a career-level job... about 80% of people i graduated with did not get jobs in their field right away.

Yeadef. I just want to get into something entry level, but i dont even know wehre to begin.

I was told by a recruiter that tried to find me work for IT, since my resume has alot of IT type shit listed on it, that they could only get me 10-11 an hr I literaly almost slapped the woman in the face.

But times are rough, but rough enough to have them pinch 3-4an hr of my money for me to only earn 10-11? F' no. LOL I Rather work at Home depot while i find a REAL job.

But yea, does anyone else have any suggestions, like places to apply to?

Or any other recruiting places around the area?
