so-so, it was easy because our school has a job fair where you can apply to many companies at the same time then they will just call you for interviews... it was hard when the company i wanted took a long time before calling me, i had several interviews and job offers with other companies but i still waited, luckily they finally called me and i got my first job...

There were aspects that I found hard. When people look at your resume and immediately say no, I found that hard to take. and found that the rejection made it hard to be confident to continue handing out resumes.
I found a great help to be the fact that I had some volunteer experience under my belt. It wasn't paid, but employers still took at legitimate.

It's always hard to get your first job. I signed up with a Temping agency who placed me in a firm, doing temporary work. The people at the company liked me and offered me a permanent job.
