Ehh... I spent all summer going through each and every job site and paper I could find. I spammed everyone in the newspaper with resumes, called everywhere, and got absolutely no bites whatsoever.

Finally my friend mentioned the job I have now, which he heard about through a coworker. I got a response within half an hour, and got the job in a matter of days.

So basically, getting a job is more who you know than what you know.

I don't think I can answer this question as 2 of the 3 jobs I've had are working for my dad.
