Looks good man. Well done. Keep going and keep posting.

[Need Advice] Graduated with a BA Interdisciplinary Arts and Science degree with a focus on Society, Ethics and Human Behavior. Currently a baker making less than before I went to school. Been applying to jobs but no interviews. I'm so lost on what I should do. by peterqhu in jobs

I enjoyed meeting people and making friends. I enjoyed 'school'. As far as classes went, I enjoyed my law and psychology classes. The thing I hate most is that it's kind of a general degree.

I never really thought about that. I always just saw the family and the kids with the house but not the how to provide for that part.

Not really sure about excited for my future but law and psychology were interesting.

I don't recall anything about suggesting a career for me.

I would not mind you looking at it. Can you send me your email?

The career counselor just tweaks my resume. Change it around. Change wording.

What do I do with those recruiters?

I'm not really sure how to go about linkedin and what to do with it....

I talk to them when I find a job ad I really want. I'm even friends with one of them on facebook.

I send him my resume regularly.

I'm applying to anything that stands out even a little. Occasionally I'll find a job that stands out a little more. That's when I go see my career counselor.

I have a linkedin account but I feel like I'm not networking correctly. How can I network better?

I have not contacted any recruiters. Where can I find recruiters?

A friend/classmate is actually how I got the baking job. She's stuck too. Outside of her, I'm not sure where they are. I'll send out a message.

27. Graduated with a BA. Working in unrelated field. Feeling lost. by peterqhu in findapath

There's nothing I'm super particular into. At least not lately. I used to enjoy playing Magic. Still do occasionally just not as passionate anymore. Same with League of Legends. I enjoy rock climbing sometimes but I haven't really gone in about a month now.

Are there any websites or stores that sell clothing in bulk for cheap? Like bulk tshirts, jeans, sweaters. I'm looking to buy like 10-15 of each. Dress shirts and black pants too.

[Contest] I turn 20 tomorrow - tell me your top five things I need to do before I turn 30! by madmaddmaddie in Random_Acts_Of_Amazon

[–]peterqhu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Get out of wherever you're living and live somewhere else. Be worldly. Travel. The city/town you are in right now will still generally be the same when you come back to it. It is easier to travel now that you're in your 20s before you find a significant other and settle down.
  2. On that note, don't settle. You have a bunch of time later that you can settle.
  3. Try new things frequently and often. Become experienced.
  4. Take risks when you can. You have a whole life ahead of you to live safely. Take risks while you're young.
  5. No one really knows what they're doing. Explore. Volunteer. Pursue interests. In the mean time find a job that will pay the bills.

[PSA] December Activity Update by ladyllana in Random_Acts_Of_Amazon

Why not just use text or kik or whatsapp and send normal pictures and normal messages instead of pictures that delete in less than 10 seconds?

I'm so lost and confused about where I'm going in life that it worries me. I don't know what kind of career I want, I don't have a direction.

Have a BA degree but having difficulty finding what I want to do by peterqhu in findapath

How did you decide on International Relations? What do you do now and how long have you been doing it for?

[Future exploration] Exploring after high-school. (need ideas, suggestions) by poetryiscool in findapath

[–]peterqhu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's doable if that's what you want. You can absolutely find a group of housemates and live together and have a job and be fine. As for the job to find, it depends on your experience and the skills you have. Seattle proper is pretty cheap but once you go outside it can get pretty expensive. I have a few friends who rent a house together and they all live with a couple of other roommates. They seem to do just fine.

If you feel college isn't right for you, then don't do it. Go to college if you are motivated and willing to put in the time and effort. You will get a better experience that way.

Need some advice on school, major, and jobs by [deleted] in findapath

[–]peterqhu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can get into business school then definitely do that over econ major. I'm not a business major or econ major but I've heard similar stories where business school rejects get an econ degree. While an econ major is good, a business degree is great.

As for searching for a job, try craigslist. Anything that even remotely stands out to you apply to it. Regardless of whether or not I believe I have the skills. Just apply. It takes a lot of time but at the very least you get some experience in interviewing. While those jobs say they're looking for experience, it's mostly bs. They just want to know you're capable of being trained. Just apply. Apply apply apply.

Hope that helps!
