I know it's a little late since I'll be graduating next saturday but I sent it off to 10 places and also applied online to best buy in st. louis. I used monster.com but I generated my own resume using career services here at school to help me a long. I'm going on a 10% rule which means hopefully I yield at least 1 interview from the 10 places applied at through Monster.com .

Good luck, getting the foot in the door is the hardest thing...

That's why I take a 2x4 with me everywhere. It's a lot easier getting one of those through a door.

I know, everyone wants experienced people but no one is willing to take someone who is willing to learn and become experienced and give them the experience they need to succeed in the job. It's like insurance, you need it but to get it, you need to have it first. I guess a similar analogy would be credit also.

Good luck, dude. Don't let the job hunt get you down - it can be a pretty soul-crushing experience.

I was lucky enough to find a job, but it doesn't mean I'll quit looking.
