I just graduated in May with my Bachelor's degree in civil engineering. I also passed the FE and received my certification as an EI. The problem is that I can't find a job! I probably emailed hundreds of resumes and cover letters. I also tried to snail mail a few to see if I get a different response...actually any kind of response. It seems to me that the only way to get a job is to know someone. I, unfortunately, do not have parents that are engineers nor is anyone else in my family an engineer. I'm starting to get discouraged because I have not heard any positive news and the economy doesn't look like it's getting any better. I have been job hunting for 2 months now, but it feels like forever. I'm thinking about getting a part time job just to have something to do and to earn some kind of money. What kind of part time job should I get that would help with my resume? Also, is there any kind of advice you can give me regarding job hunting and everything else? I'm desperate. Thanks.
