I graduated during a recession and had a hard time finding a job even though I had a tech degree and a 3.76 GPA.

It was a tough time but I learned some valuable lessons.

well, I would have to HAVE a job to change jobs, huh?

I'm in grad school now though.

i'll probably be graduating with a CS degree, and a 3.0gpa if i do good this year. with the job market how it is now-- i'm going to be struggling to find a good job. I"ll just have to take what i can get and be happy with it.


btw-- how do you manage 6 jobs with one company- did they move you around?

No, I stayed in the same city. I work for a large company. Some of the jobs were broadly the same. More accurately, I've made three career changes.

I'm finishing my 3rd job in 1 year. I'm getting royally sick of contract work and I just wish someone would hire me full time.
