How to get your first job (as a recent graduate)

Step 7 Persistance and Luck

All of the previous steps mean nothing without persistence. 

"Luck is the residue of design" - John Milton

These were just some of my experiences, but they may be useful for others in the future.  I hope they are to you, and best of luck in your job hunting.

While your Instructable is obviously aimed at the recent graduate, It shows a lot of wisdom that even people who are looking for a more 'experienced' position would do well to pay attention to.  Very Nice Writeup.

great article!
One good site for journalism peeps is journalismjobs.com.
I haven't been having luck landing a job, but I'm hoping it's true about persistence.
Good luck, everyone!
Our inability to find a job is not necessarily a bad reflection of ourselves, but more likely on this sh*tty economy!
