Network. When looking for a job it is important to use every resource at your disposal. A lot of young people these days are overly dependent on the social media sites (i.e. Facebook, LinkedIn, etc.) to get their employment. It is important that job boards and employee referrals are also utilized. Career fairs and personal and professional networking are also good ways of trying to land that job. Sometimes networking and asking for referrals can seem embarrassing and somewhat intimidating but they can be your best way of getting your foot into the door.
