Well, i'm still looking for my 1st job. So it got me thinking. What was your first job? How did you get it? Via recommendations? or via job search?

My first permanent job besides doing a paper route when I was growing up was working at Burger King. I did the Grill cooking the hamburgers and making the sandwiches. It was not a Bad job, and a start to getting my foot in the door to the working world as well. Wishing you the Best in your job search.

Ohh, I am pursuing my graduation, so no permanent job as of now. Well, I'll also go for MS and only then will I go for a job as it will fetch me a higher pay. I don't believe in those job sites that assure you, as they can only provide jobs in Business Processing Outsourcing. I think the best place is in your own Campus.

I got my first job through job search. I had written a lot of applications and sent a lot of CV's. My first job was an Assistant Maintenance Technician before I was sent for further training. One thing in life if you want to get up the ladder is not to despair. Always have hope. You will get your job at the opportune time. Sometimes your delay to get a job is God's plan. There is something in store for you that only God can solve. I stayed home for 14 months before I got one. You could be sailing in the same boat but, hope and trust in God is the best option we have in life. Your job is on your way soon and you will come back here to tell the good news. Never ever despair.
