Suppose you had 2 candidates applying for a job as your secretary. The first one claims to have a high school "degree" while the other has a PhD from university of phoenix. Which one would you hire and why?
 
What major?

I ask because I'm in the technology field, and whenever people talk about the economy in relation to jobs it feels like they're talking about a different America. I had multiple offers coming out of college, and none of my peers seem to have any problems jumping around to different companies (if they decide to live somewhere else or don't like their current job).

Heck, I know kids who haven't even started their senior year of college and already have 6-figure job offers once they graduate (computer science)...

The only thing holding you back likely is the no work experience. You gotta get something on your resume.

Look for volunteer work, it will not only act as a filler on your resume, but you may find employment that way too.

Local government is a great place to start.

Business
 
Do you have a passion in what you do?
If so, network. Try to get as many people as possible aware of your skills/talents. It's best if you can show (examples) or explain how you could/can solve issues they are having.
 
Wait, isn't average height something like 5'7"-5'8"?

And ah, business. Yeah I guess GPA would hurt you there. Most business majors I know went to the Big 4/consulting, but they probably wouldn't look at anything under a 3.5...
 
Look at taking up a hobby site/business. Put that as experience. It sounds crazy, but it worked out for me. On my resume I actually have the fact that I run a few websites and game server with appropriate URLs. On my game server site I actually had a section talking about our change management process and stuff.

Yes.. Is that really bad?

I am Asian after all.

No, the 5'10" thing isn't bad.

What's bad is that you're Asian, and you had a 3.0 GPA. Your parents must be so ashamed of you. 🙁

Aside from that and no work experience, I don't see what the problem is.

As others have asked, what field did you study (or not study)?

I got a 2.8 GPA in my undergrad. I worked on projects with JPL, NSF, NIST, and NIH. Now I have a full ride to grad school, plus I get paid. Your problem isn't your GPA, it's your laziness.

Either you think some work is beneath you, or you should CREATE work experience. I'm not talking about fabricating it; I'm talking about being self employed.

You can change that.

Why is this a disadvantage? At least you don't get pulled over for stealing your own car.

Sure, if you want to be. Your choice.

You can be ugly if you want to be. Or good looking if you want to be. Get a better attitude.

Actually it is. Women aren't attracted to manlets, and with a 3.0GPA he will never make enough money to afford a hooker, so he'll die a virgin.

There is only one option for you OP: sell your tight butthole to fat old pedophiles.
 
Pft

im 5'6
ugly as a fucking brick (really if you see my pic you would cry)

It's not as bad as you make it out.
