Graduation is Around the Corner!

The day we all thought would never come is almost upon us…. GRADUATION! Even though this is what we have been looking forward to for the past 4+ years, now that its finally approaching, some of us might not feel ready. What is hands-down the biggest concern cluttering most of our minds? Jobs of corse! Well there is no time to waste, the job hunt is on.

As discussed in previous posts, apparently, there are jobs out there, it’s just a matter of finding them and applying. Here are a few tools, tips, and sites that might help in lading that post-grad, big girl/boy job you’ve always dreamed of:

1. Utilize the OwlNetwork! I know the constant e-mails seem bothersome, but look at them, and check out the @Student Jobs and Internships Section of TUportal. This is how I landed my last internship and there seem to be a ton of awesome jobs posted every day.

2. Attend a job fair or portfolio night. There are a ton coming up and it is a great way to get your work seen and reviewed while networking with other members of the industry. Who knows, maybe this will land you your big break! Here are links to two upcoming portfolio nights that I would recommend:

3. Search the web! There are so many other outlets and websites with job postings specifically for our fields, do a little research on your own and make sure you update your Linkedin. Here are some useful websites with job listings that I found just by googling “Philly Advertising jobs”:
