I am 21 and supposed to graduate college in May 2008, and there is a mobile home on the market for only $15,500. When the realtor called me about the mobile home, she told me I would need to have a job, and to call her back when I get a job (after college). When I am not on campus I must stay with my father, cousin, and all of her kids at my grandma's house, which is so hectic that my father and I just want to get into our own place, so getting into the mobile home is very important to me. In addition, I will need to begin paying my student loans off 6 months after I graduate. But I have always had trouble getting a job even despite my resume and references, and I have never even been able to get a paying job before, and I can't even drive. So I am extremely worried that I will not get one after I graduate college. Please help. How can I make sure that I will have a job when I graduate college? The job could be working at McDonalds for all I care, just as long as I have one.

A couple of suggestions: First of all, you should start looking for a post-college job right now, rather than waiting until you are about to graduate. Check with your college's placement office. Secondly, get an internship now with a company with a reputation for hiring their interns into permanent jobs if they do well.

If it can be any job that you have to have, just type up a resume and go job hunting. There has to be someone hiring in your town. The other thign would be to talk to your professors at school and see if there are work-study programs for you that place you in a job when you are at school and then they offer a job after you graduate. Good luck.

honestly it is not that hard to find a job! the current job i have the owner offered to me. with a college degree.. although im not sure if it is an associates or bachelors you will have. well the degree would not really matter for a job at mcdonalds. you could get a job there right now if you wanted it. just apply everywhere and answer questions correctly. try to fit what you believe that the employer is looking for.

How many resumes do you have out? How many job interviews have you been on? I think you are going about this the wrong way. I would pass on the purchase of anything for now until you have a more secure financial future.
