EXPAND YOUR SEARCH
Careers are measured in months, not years. And it takes a multi-faceted, disciplined approach, so don't limit your search to a single source. Learn the search tools you need to bolster your pursuit for the next job (and the next job after that).
Leverage your personal network
Reach out to friends, mentors, former supervisors, and other recent grads. Ask them about their experiences, completed projects, failures they learned from, and other connections they have.
