Experience needed
March 23, 2006

I am in the middle of yet another job search. Simply put, I am drowning here. Bills and debt are just killing me. After expenses, I am only averaging about $65-100 every two weeks, and that is not including food. It makes keeping up with games and movies just a wee bit difficult.

On that note, I have some advice for anyone who is in college or will be attending in the future. GET AN INTERNSHIP. That's one thing that I never did, and am seriously regretting. I'm stuck in the famous catch-22 of "experience required, but need the job to get the experience." All I want is the chance to prove I can do the job, but employers aren't usually into taking chances. Get an internship and take it seriously, because it just might be your only chance to prove yourself.

And Dad, if you're reading this.....yes, you were right.

I've been told to death to get an internship in a year or two. It will definitely help in most fields.
