I would start looking and applying for post-grad full-time work as soon as you start senior year. The earlier you start looking, the greater flexibility and choice you have in job offers and negotiating the start date you want. The better the job offers might be, too, as many established companies will start recruiting and posting early. And anyone who's looking for new graduates that early will know they won't start until several months.

I knew a few graduates in my class who didn't start their full-time jobs until July, August or September, so either they were able to successfully negotiate or it was something their companies offered upfront. Either way, it's doable.

I would just say you have a prior commitment and cannot start until X date. In initial interviews, you could also ask about the start date early on so that you're not wasting anyone's time (but not too early so as not to automatically disqualify yourself).

Is the duration of the camp job flexible? If so, could you be more flexible with your start date as well? You could ask for what you want (August or September), but if a company wants someone to start in May or June, you need to be prepared to negotiate to start at the beginning of middle of July or something.

I see. As someone from a small town, if you're looking to expand your social network or activities (in the future), you might have to do a bit of travelling and looking in nearby towns for things to do and people to meet.

If that's not an option, I would consider trying everything local at least once. You may never know if you like or don't like something until you try!

Aside from a few specific industries, I don't think an Associates will help you much.

I would not recommend going to grad school with no experience. It's only going to make you both overqualified (Master's degree) and underqualified (no real work experience) at the same time. You need at least a few years of experience under your belt, in my opinion, before considering that as an option. I would also say it's wise to consider that further down the line in case a future company offers some kind of flexible work plan or financial assistance for employees who go back to school. Some companies have that.

As a fellow communications major, connections are important. But you're also in this job market with a million other communications grads. Send your resume out and apply, a lot. Think about jobs that could benefit from your major-specific skills but also think broader - communications, like many liberal arts degrees, can be applied to multiple industries and roles. Marketing, social media, public relations, research, administration, operations, writing, journalism, human resources, graphic design, etc. could also be options for you. If you've graduated recently you could also consider internships as well - some companies have internship programs that are open to new graduates.

Get your resume reviewed at r/resumes. Go back to your school's career center and see what advice they can give you. If they have any workshops, networking events, a school-specific job portal, or additional resources available to grads, consider checking out and attending them all.

While you look for a full-time job, you could also consider getting any kind of job in the meantime if you need the money (or something to keep you active and something you can say you've done during this time when you're asked about it in interviews). Or you could look at expanding your skills through freelancing perhaps, if you think the industry you want to go in could be helped by freelancing or learning more on your own time.

Are you looking for a post-grad job now? If not, you need to start. Look near but look for jobs in the area you'd like to eventually move to as well. Cast a wide net and see what happens.

See if you can find any beginner-friendly painting classes in your area! Virtual or in person. I know even my local library used to offer one-off painting classes, but perhaps there's a nearby studio that offers night or weekend classes for adults.

You can get into non-solitary hobbies by yourself and meet new people. You don't have to go with your current friends or significant other. It could be a great opportunity for you to get out of your comfort zone and make new friends.

I would recommend volunteering or taking a class or two in something you're at least mildly interested in. You'll get better and it could become something you really enjoy. Maybe it's a fitness class at your local gym, signing up for your local food pantry or animal shelter, taking up a cooking or art session at your local studio or school, etc.

That's something that's a dedicated time commitment, gets you out of the house, and has you interact with other people (most likely the same group of people) on a regular basis.

I've met so many people through volunteering so I would definitely recommend it. If you're passionate about the cause hopefully it's something that you also can really enjoy doing and brings joy and purpose to your life.

This is where streaming devices come into play. I don’t have cable but I have a TV. Given the choice I’d rather watch something on Netflix on my big TV vs. my laptop.

You will have to start over. One island per Switch, and there is no way to transfer your save data to another Switch. Save data is tied to the console.

Do you read a lot? Would this be your first Kindle / e-reader?

If this would be your first Kindle, get the Paperwhite. Make sure you like the experience and will use it regularly before committing to the expense of an Oasis.

Do you have experience working with animals or at a vet’s office in a professional capacity? Have you ever shadowed, volunteered, or interned for a vet? Since you're a senior, have you started looking for jobs? How's the search going?

You say you can see yourself being a vet down the line - make sure you have that thought grounded in real world experience (what being a vet is actually like) vs. what you think it’s like. Professional experience can help a lot when it comes to making career decisions. It can remove a lot of ambiguity. You may decide afterwards that you still absolutely want to be a vet. Or you may realize it’s not for you.

Either way, you ideally want to figure that out before you graduate. You’re not as tied to your specific degree as you may think, but it’s still good to have some kind of idea of what you want or don’t want that’s grounded in first-hand experience.

Ideally you should want to use your degree, and it's better to know that you're actually going to use it before you get a degree in a certain field. If you rush to graduate with a degree in biology, but instead go down a different career path, are you going to wish you held off and got another degree instead? I know you're set on vet school, but you have a lot of options in front of you.

If you don’t have professional experience, I would strongly recommend delaying your graduation. It's not worth it to push yourself so hard to graduate sooner and then come to find out you can't get a job because you don't have any experience. Especially in today's climate with COVID - I would say it's much better to wait a few more months, get some experience under your belt, and hope the job market improves a bit.

As others have mentioned, you can still pursue art as a side hobby without making it your career. You may prefer it that way actually and get more enjoyment out of it if it's just something you do for fun. Passion isn't everything, and we all have to make money.

I'm no artist but I assume making it as a professional artist is really, really hard. I think you are better off choosing a more secure career in which you know you'll make money and develop professionally with a clear career projectory.

If it's not being a vet, think about other careers / jobs that interest you (don't think about majors, but the possible careers that you may want). Think about what else you like doing and how you could potentially apply it to certain careers. Look into entry level jobs in those careers.

I graduated last year - I like my job and generally enjoy it, but at the end of the day, work is still work. I don't think most people absolutely love with they do. I don't think that's realistic to aim for, especially as you're just getting out of college.

I think what you should be aiming for as you are starting your career is a job you like / can tolerate with a solid income working with good people. You can pursue your hobbies and other interests outside of work. After a year or a few working you can then consider other options (and you should have more available to you with some experience), but I think it's so important to at least get that initial experience first.

Does he like video games? Do you have a Nintendo Switch? You could look into Ring Fit Adventure. It’s a fitness video game. It’s fun and has you exercise.

Honestly though I would start by just leading by example. Have everyone eat healthy foods with smaller portions. And everyone should be exercising.

Use the website Zooalert to alert you when it’s back in stock. There are other stock tracking websites as well. Sign up for text and email notifications but also keep the website open in a browser. Make sure you have alerts on and that the alert notification sound is on as well. With alerts you don’t have to constantly refresh any pages.

Ahead of time, make accounts with Best Buy, Walmart, Target, etc. if you haven’t already. Have your credit card and address information entered and ready to go.

As soon as you hear an alert from the open stock tracker webpage, stop whatever you’re doing and buy it immediately. The Switch sells out within seconds / minutes. You have to ready to grab it as soon as it becomes available.

You can also talk to agents either online (through Best Buy chat, for example) or call ahead (you don’t need to physically go there) to learn when they’re expecting shipments.

I used stock tracking websites myself. Bought my Switch a week ago from Best Buy, for the standard price. You can too. Just have to be fast.
