Nowaday difficult to get the suitable job that i learn in college. I'm IT graduate but i'm working in publication now. Maybe coz my knowledge in IT is not enough. My work now just a little bit related that i'm study. How about you?

Yes, I am an educator and I used to work as a sportswriter and call center agent. They are all related to my courses. I have two degrees (BSE and Broadcast Communications), but I enjoy the jobs I have mentioned. It would be hard if you don't like what you are doing. Therefore, it doesn't matter if your work is related to your course or not, the important thing is you enjoy what you do and that would encourage and inspire you with your job.

Yes, I work in the same field that I graduated in. I went to school for fashion merchandising and marketing(double major). I am now a buyer for a major department store. For a lot of people it is definitely hard to find a job in your major. I got my job by pure luck, but I'm thankful none the less. While you are working, continue to look for something in the IT field. There will eventually be something that sparks your interest. Good luck!

Well I'm a foreign languages major but I work in an HR consultancy firm. I really don't know why but soon I'll be leaving this work to find a job that is related to my course.
