Answer 1

Opportunity is not something that is always ready when you are.
Some people seem to think that just as soon as they enter the job market, that they should instantly find a high paying job, instantly having a management position, and instantly have everything in life that they want.

I'm not sure how this notion has come about, but it does not work that way.

To get to where you want to be, requires time and hard work. Rather than worrying about what being a success at finding the job you want,

1) Work at being a success at a job you can get.
2) Network with people in the field in which you want to base your career.
3) Always keep your eye open for opportunities within your career choice.
4) Use current employment opportunities to establish yourself as a hard worker with social aptitude toward co-workers.
