Best job search strategy for someone graduating from university this April?

Question

Hello,

So I graduate this year (this month) with a degree in Kinesiology (Health Science, Phys-ed, all the same) The problem is that I can't get a job in my field without further education, which I do not want to do right now. I want to get a job where I can be trained in business skills, as a business systems analyst or a consultant of some type. I know that posted jobs only comprise 20% of the jobs available, so I am wondering if anyone has some tips on how I could access entry level business jobs when I don't have a "relevant" undergraduate degree. Thanks so much.

Just to add... I have already gone to my career center, I've done the resume critique, and the interview practice session. Any suggestions on things to do by myself?

Answer 1

Take advantage of the Job Placement office at your university! They'll have postings for all sorts of job that employ recent graduates, and they probably have all sorts of resources for resume writing, interviewing skills, etc. You should be able to retain access to their services for a while after graduation, but be sure to stop in and find out what they have and how they can help you. You paid all that tuition,and you might as well take advantage of the resource while you can.
