Many of us sound almost as if we are 40 years old and haven't found the love of our lives. "I'll take anything" is what I hear from a lot of people. We hear and see evidence about economic fragility but good prospects for we have faith in college education and our "pre"-career decisions. Is job hunting after graduation, or even internships before so, a desperate act? Yes, many of us are graduating caring out negative balances and hopes for better lives... Wake up in a decent time, work for a good amount of hours, have free time to live out our other hobbies, nonetheless to receive a decent paycheck at the end of the month and pay the bills... live free of our college-days worries.
How many of us have wondered about "What job are we REALLY looking for?" Experience is certainly a must, and perhaps that's what leave us a little crazy in this process, for we all are somewhat inexperient! For instance, awhile back, I was discussing with a Professor about an internship position, and he stated "You know... Company X, is a great place... but I feel it would not be the right place for you... for your personality."
It made me think of who I am, and how I tackle my life and things in general, and to realize how important it is to understand and gain a knowledge of each place we are searching for a position. After all, not only each one of us have different personalities, but companies are formed by different individuals, and it is likely that most of the employees that stay in these places form the core of each company's "personality."
I may be wrong, after all, I'm a rookie!
How about you --- What do you think?
Do you think that the job we are looking for should be a desperate search, or something that we should put more thought into? Consider the different opportunities around us and narrow it to what would be
