Become Your Own Boss By starting your own business you can create your own career opportunities. Entrepreneurial ventures are only limited by your imagination and marketplace. Resource: Small Business Administration www.sbaonline.sba.gov

Graduate School? In a slow job market, graduate school can be a viable alternative. Weigh the pros and cons. Consult a career professional. Consider other options: Peace Corps, AmeriCorps, Gap Year experience, teaching English in a foreign country.

Networking The process of developing and maintaining contacts. The best network is personal interaction. The newest method: Social networks on the Web. The secret of networking is reciprocity.

Information Interviewing Involves identifying people who are doing what you want to be doing and asking questions related to their current job. Can refine your knowledge of a particular field. Can help you develop social skills related to interviewing.

Tips for Job-seeking While Unemployed Stick to a daily job search schedule. Keep active and in touch with people. Match your skills to an employer’s needs. Spend a portion of each day online researching job leads. Reserve the final part of day for follow-up.
