i've finally found a job. i graduate from college w/ a BS in MIS. i've been looking for work in the field to no avail, so i just accepted an offer at a small automotive supplier company. i'll be working as an account manager, supplying to several tier one companies.
i've got mixed emotions. it'll be my first "real" job w/ a real paycheck, so i'm excited. however, i really feel like i've "given up" the search for a job in the IT industry. i tell myself that i'll keep looking for a job in my field of study (that should pay more than i'll be getting now). one positive note is that most people who have worked for the company have gone on to larger companies (mostly automotive). regardless, i don't want to sound ungrateful, so please don't think i am.
so yeah, hooray for me
anyone else have some words of advice for someone in my position?
