College Jobs
Go back to school for another degree/more training or just go work at a low-level job (e.g. – McDonald’s) for some quick cash until the job market gets better?

It took me like 6 months to find a job when I got done with school. I have my Associates and Bachelors in the IT field. Don’t worry about it or get mad at yourself, you’ll find one, give it some time.

I joined the Army and went into OCS. However that was a year after graduating when I couldn’t get a job in anything else.

Keep looking. You can find a job as a fundraiser working for me. Write grants for a commission.

Keep trying. You’re not the only one. Look into starting your own business. Competition is very intense these days. Having a higher level degree isn’t a unique attribute anymore. The solution is to find a niche for yourself. You have to figure out what you can do that most people can’t and learn how to market those skills to the right people who need it.
