Career/Job struggle.
Hi all,
I am currently In college getting an Associates degree in Business Administration. For the past few month I have been trying to find a job that goes with my degree or something that I would like to gain experience from .My problem is, every job that I find is asking for "x" amount of years of experience...which I have none. My second problem is that I dont know what I should do with my degree. My question is, How do I get my self out there? I am more than willing at starting at an entry level...or something completely different from my degree.

Seriously?
Yah, it's an "employer's" market, but seeing so many listings for roles that are offering literally half or 25% of what the pay should be is making me sick. You want 5-10 years experience for x? The pendulum always swings back. Employers may want to consider that. Don't hire until you can…

Would you consider a move from a corporate job for a job at a much smaller company + pay cut or just wait for another opportunity?
My current job: I'm the marketing lead for a division within a large, global media company. In addition to pay being great, benefits are as well, including 401k matching. Also, while I have a hybrid schedule and do need to go into the office a few times a week, it's flexible enough…

Take advantage of your college career center or financial aid office, there is no better way to gain entry into the field than by having an intermediary, whether that is by networking or through your school. If this is not an option for you, I would definitely recommend an office temp agency, they will know the jobs that are hiring for entry level positions.
Taking on a variety of positions will also help you figure out what you like and dislike. Good luck!
