From what I am hearing, good luck with that in this economy. If you got leads post them up there are a few guys out of school looking for jobs. Squirrel, Bad64C, maybe others.


As someone who has read 10000 resumes, you better not have no job for 8 months out of school. Gaps look bad. It's better to have a job than no job. And it's not like a potential employer will hold a supermarket job against you when you're looking for entry level stuff. In fact steady employment history is a bonus at that point in a career.

I'd make sure if you take a job like a supermarket gig you make sure your bosses are ok with flexibility so you have time to look for a 'real job' (any job that pays is a real job to me). Now, if supermarket management is what you want, that is cool, you're in.

Not sure any of this pertains to the OP though.
