College Graduate
I have good news to share with all of you. Despite the terrible whether we had last week and losing our football game at the championship for the third time in a row[:@], I am now a college graduate with a B.S. in Marketing. Once I find out what my official grades were from the semester, I'll let you know. It was a very trying semester (sometimes making me feel a little crazy[sm=headbang.gif]), but it is finally over. Now the job search begins. Thank you all for your support during the last 2 years and most of all thank you God for your help. [sm=groupwave.gif][sm=massbounce.gif][sm=yeahsmile.gif]

I'll tell you, it is a strange feeling as you get the diploma case (the Diploma comes in the mail within a week) and it dawns on you. "I put in all this work, stayed up on numerous nights, gave myself headaches, spent a small fortune, and all that happen is I wear this black gown that isn't even our university's color, put on this stupid looking hat with this annoying tassel that keeps whacking me in the face and suddenly its over and I have to find a job. What a rip off![:@]" LOL!
Just kidding, my time was worth while and I gained more from it than just a rolled up fancy piece of paper. I'm feeling better each day as the stress is disappearing and I'm feeling optimistic about my prospects.

RE: College Graduate
RLSH700, Congrats dude! Excellent. It's kind of funny how something you're working towards sneaks up on ya before ya know it.
Just remember when going into interviews, relaxed enthusiasm! I know it sounds contradictory, but go in positive and relaxed. Try to be sure to get some practice interviews in (with companies you're not real torqued up about), this will give you a chance burn a few just to get them under your belt and hone your style. You may also accidentally fall into a job you really like!
Again...excellent job congratulations!

RE: College Graduate
Congrats and good luck with the future. I remember when I was done with school. Happy days.
And like DS talks about in interviews. He is right about being positive and relaxed. At first I was stressed, didn't really get offers, once I relaxed and basically act like it wasn't a big deal to get the job, it seemed like I was getting more 2nd interviews and job offers. But be positive, if they ask about a particular skill, and you don't know, don't BS, say that you are not familiar but definatley willing to learn with a positive attitude. Also if you don't think a company is not right for you, you should still go in for an interview just to get the practice.
