Advice from someone who's been there
(Anonymous) 2012-07-23 03:59 am (UTC)(link)Second, make it your job to find a job. Yes, it's rough and awful and discouraging. But you absolutely will not land anything if you don't put effort into it. Log out of your fandom accounts and start following leads eight hours a day, five days a week. That will both get you used to cutting back on fandom stuff and get your ass out there moving. If you find that your job search isn't taking your full eight hours, then do something else. Clean your home, get some exercise if you're able, do anything but get back online where the easy, instant gratification of fandom is. That only makes it easier to decide not to get up and try again the next day.
As for applying: remember, we are living in a new world, and college degrees don't matter for shit. You may well need to consider a 'career' you'd never thought about -- starting off as a barista or a janitor, for example. Don't rule out temp jobs and staffing companies either...the money may not be forever but it helps you make connections.
Good luck, anon.
