How do I get the job?

I am a 2025 Graduate with a degree in Communications and minors in Business, Creative Writing, and Philosophy. Since I graduated, I held small jobs to stay afloat, but nothing that would be good long-term financially. I have struggled through what feels like thousands of unanswered applications and dozens of interviews where I was "a great runner-up". I'm feeling the pressure of needing to pay my bills and build my experience, but I can't seem to get job offers no matter what I do.

How do I create my resume to stand out from other applicants? Is my resume at a large disadvantage because I have not worked an internship? What are some of the best ways to network for a niche career path?

Hi, my name is Addy, I am currently a senior at the College of Charleston majoring in Communications and minoring in Arts Management. As excited as I am about my post-grad life, I am just as anxious. I want to work in music PR, although I am unsure if my resume is strong enough. I have worked since I have been 16 but, I have not worked an internship or in a position for my career goals. I also understand that the subfield of PR I would like to work in is more niche; what are good ways to network/ make connections for this career path? Thanks, Addy

What are good degree options for a 20-year-old leaving ABA?

I’m 20 years old and planning to go to college. I’ve been in ABA for 7 months making $22/hr, and I don’t have a passion to pursue this field long-term. The job is both physically and mentally demanding, and I’ve received little to no support in what feels like an extremely unethical work environment. Right now, my main focus is to get my associate’s degree, but I want out of ABA as quickly as possible. I’m looking for something that can lead to a stable, supportive, and beneficial career with opportunities to grow. I can’t do programs that require clinicals because I need to work full-time while in school, but I am open to other healthcare-related roles. My main interests include psychology, law, beauty/cosmetology, and business. I’ve considered becoming a paralegal, but I live in a small city and I don’t think there are many job listings in that field. I’m open to other options as well—I just want something where I can get good support, decent pay, and long-term advancement opportunities.

Advice on getting into Security Awareness or Technical writer ?

I am a recent Cybersecurity graduate looking to break into Security Awareness and Human Risk Management, I am looking for advice on the most strategic entry-to-junior level roles to target. Specifically, would it be more effective to build foundational skills as a Technical Writer to master security documentation, or should I aim directly for Junior Security Awareness Analyst roles? I’d love insight into which path hiring managers value more for someone starting out.

Anyone who does career counseling ?

I am trying to figure out what I want to study in either for trade school or college. I currently am unemployed and 17. I need a job now as well that pays well and long term but I am not sure if I should do a program or internship at PCC instead because the job market is really bad right now. I am also not sure whether I want to have a remote job or in-person job after I finish either college or trade. If anyone who was in a similar situation or is currently doing trade/college/internship/program what your advice is. I am just really lost right now and I don’t have much time because I finish high school in about 5 months so I need to have a plan after that. I know there is different topics any questions but if anyone can please share your feedback on this I would appreciate it.

How do I get refferals for Co-Ops and Internships I'm applying for?

What’s the best way for students to get referrals for co‑ops or internships? I’m trying to understand how the process usually works and what steps actually make a difference. I've already completed one Co-Op as a financial analyst at TJX, but did that without referrals or networking. Any advice from people who’ve been on either side of the referral process would be really helpful.

MBA or Keep looking for a job?

I recently just got accepted to an MBA program with a good scholarship and I don't know if I should take it. It also means moving across the world, back home with the program starting in 2 months and I don't know if I'm ready for a change like that in such a short time span. The reason I'm doing an MBA is largely because I don't feel equipped at work and lack the business knowledge. I also want to start a business one day and I don't have the skills for that. I've also been job searching for the past year and I haven't had any luck with it. Mainly because I'm unsure about my direction. Would you recommend pursuing an MBA?

How do I balance internships with other higher paying jobs?

I know getting an internship is necessary, but how should I balance that with a high paying former job? I need the work experience of the internship but also the money from the other job. If I don't get a ton of scholarships or grants, I will definitely need the money. Also, should I get a job or side hustle while I am at school?

How can I find a job just for the summer before moving for college?

I need a summer job before going off to school in August. I get my diploma May 29th. Will start looking for a job then. Except the job market is terrible right now, and I'd imagine it is even harder to find a seasonal job.
