Sorry this is so late. I landed a gig as a Parole Officer. Scored a 96 on the Civil Service exam and heard back fairly quickly.congrats!
what type of job you land?
got an interview with Fedex for a part time package handler tomorrow. Job is in South San Francisco and I'll be commuting from San Jose. They work you anywhere from 10-30 hours a week. Gonna let them know I need at the very least 20 or I'll barely break even.
Man, get into CNC Machining like I told you.
bruh, is it worth it? I've been seriously considering going to the local cc and take some classes for it.
Nice to hear some of the success stories in here.
I'm currently working 2 jobs(One at a bank and another in property preservation for foreclosed homes) and the pay and all that is fine but I am just tired of working 2 jobs but I need it to cover all my bills and be comfortable. I guess what I'm looking for is just one job that can pay equal as both jobs now. My typical day is the bank starting around 9:30-11am(depending on schedule, I usually have a weekday off but work Saturday mornings) till about 4:15pm and then my other job(M-F) from 5pm-1am. I work around 65-70hrs/week and get paid comfortably but I feel it's too much and that I should have more free time. I've had 2 jobs for around a year and some change now.
My plan is to stick it out an see if a promotion is in store for either jobs and just take it so I can relax and enjoy life a little more. Do you guys suggest I do that or look for a complete new job that pays equal or more?
22 in Ohio if that matters
Just wondering, where the hell do you live that it was a 4 hour commute? Rockland, maybe Woodbury area? 2 hours to the city and 2 hours back...

I think it's worth it if you enjoy working with your hands and using your brain at the same time. You can pretty much get a job anywhere in the country. It's very easy as well to get a job. Some companies will even train you/pay for your school. You can take the classes for free also, looking into BOG waiver at your local CC.

man, I need a job for anywhere from a couple of months to a year. Is there any entry level positions to get into? If so do you know what the starting pay would be?
If you don't mid me asking, what do you do at the bank? And how much are you getting paid for that?
if you were to get a promotion, you would be either a Customer Service Rep or a Personal Banker. I would check on a daily basis to see if your bank has any opening for those positions and just apply rather than wait for a promotion. I think the pay for those positions would be around 32-35k for CSR and 34-40k for a PB.I'm a teller at a national bank chain. Basically just doing customer transactions and trying to get them to sign up for credit cards/accounts/loans and what not. Part time 20hrs so only around 13k/year with bonuses. Just started their last month coming from my part time retail job

Bro look into Mercedes Benz USA. They love recruiting from Rutgers for some reason. Probably because their headquarters are in NJ not too far away.
Just graduated from Rutgers University with a BA in economics and I was wondering what types of careers I should look into to start out. A bunch of my friends are financial analysts so I'm kind of swayed into that direction at the moment. I keep getting calls from sales position that I definitely do not want to be a part of at all. Thanks in advance.

I know in pharma, which is where i work, they are out there. The thing with this industry is that the entry level jobs are coveted and really tough to get. You really need to network (there may be events in your area), touch base with college prof's (they usually have great connections), and just apply to lots of jobs (whether you meet the requirements or not - dont apply for high up positions, obviously, but maybe like 1-3 year experience jobs). When i first got in to pharma it was tough, but i got a great lead from a college prof i kept in touch with. It didnt get me the job, but it got me an interview (which is the hardest part), and then i did the rest.
any tips for entry level business analyst/project management roles?
