^QFT. I'm an implementation and deployment of software support person, get it.

So, you may be a little bit late, but the whole IT/Security industry is getting pillaged by consulting firms. (Corps don't want to hire people full-time for ideas, so they hire consultants) Accenture/PWC/Deloitte are where you want to be a technology consultant. All have huge offices in...

Yeah, this is getting weird. I'm not insensitive or being rude, I'm trying to get people motivated and help them realize that they can do it! Other than that, sorry for derailing this thread, continue....

I guess it depends where you live and what field you are. I know right now Engineering is in high demand. I am Mechanical Engineer and I get calls all the time for job opportunities. So I dont think its a lie that they have created a ton of jobs I just think they are specified fields. I know my...

You're right, my apologies, I'm not trying to help people out or anything, by shedding light, and having them take action, then to just complain and feel as though everything sucks right now.

What industry?

Absolutely, they def. would. Besides what I listed already, I know JNJ has a FLDP, so does Lockheed Martin. With that being I know there are hundreds of companies that have something similar (2 years of work, rotating a couple of times in various roles).

Have you applied anywhere yet? I would suggest the obvious, GS, BR, Barclays (Big firms), do you know of any smaller local firms? In philadelphia, we have SIG and Turner Investments, both relatively large institutions. Do you have a high GPA? Any experience?

In August, when I was working for my current position, I applied to over 40 different positions, some I heard from, some I didn't. And that's ok, you just gotta persevere. It doesn't hurt to apply right?

Try Accenture, and Deloitte for sure. They both have Technology Consultant positions. Excelacom is a small firm, that is getting larger. Also, have your tried working for the gov't, the navy does have positions for people aren't part of the armed forces, as electrical engineers. I know in...

So you want to work with warehousing? Are you still in school? do you have a concentration? (Supply-chain, procurement, aggragate planning, operations, quality, etc.)

So if you want to get a job in a Consulting firm, get ready for long hours, honestly, but there's a good amount of traveling and freedom. Look at Accenture (always hiring), PWC, Deloitte, Boston, Cognizant, E&Y, KPMG, but you already know about the accounting firms. Do you want to stay...

Haha, right on! And have you ever heard of Razorfish or Digitas?

What job are you talking about? But either way, both full-time positions were landed completely on my own, no connections involved at all.

Perfect! Industrial Engineering is the closest to what I'm doing, working with manufacturing sites and what not, can you give me more info on what companies you're looking at?

Copywriter! When I worked for Microsoft, as a PM (internship), our copywriters got paid 50k+, just sayin' it's there!

With all the constant negativity surrounding the job market, I'd love to help anyone that's willing to try. I'm by no means satisfied with my career, yet, but I would like to help people with resumes/job searching/skill honing, and pretty much anything career related. As for my background, I...

Not be rude, but so you know, it's blue collared.

I disagree... I got a jobs out of college 50k, and now I found a better job, that I'll be starting in June for 85k. I don't really think it's that hard...

Seriously? There are a lot of jobs available.... Let me know your skills, I'll find you career sites with 1000 jobs listed. It's not that hard. As an operations graduate, I had trouble applying to all the jobs available. If you're interested PM me, or just post on here. Seriously, be...
