This post is a continuation of my blog post I am a Position Player.
Disclosure this is very much a rant blog post to get out my frustrations of not being where I expected or wanted to be almost one year after I graduated.
Finding that perfect job or any job right now is frustrating. To help understand some of the frustrations I recommend you read this post about the Young, Educated, and Unemployed. You are looking for an entry level employee who can do a lot more than any entry level can and 3+ years experience be realistic, that is not entry level. I understand there are people who have this experience and are out of work, but try to make the posting for them not a recent college graduate. Also experience isn’t everything; sometimes it is better to have no experience. I am able to do a lot but not everything in your job requirements, and I am aware of the hassle of hiring an entry level employee who doesn’t know everything… but that is what makes me entry level. My experience and education has taught me a lot. And my continual education has taught me even more. I don’t want to be micro-managed but would like to have someone I can go to for advice or help. As mentioned in, My Promise to Myself I have many areas of expertise in which I am comfortable working in. I am also trying to add a My Resume to my blog… but honestly it’s not turning out good and still needs a lot of work. In the mean time you can see it here on my LinkedIn. Soon I plan to go into the two marketing agencies in Appleton I would love to work for and give them an offer they can't refuse. I have done my research on the companies and know what they do and that I can do that. I am almost to the point of working for minimum wage just so I can get more experience and get a relationship with the agency. I am close to the point of no longer waiting for a job to open and going and make the job.
Thanks for sitting through my rant.
