New Graduate Seeking Employment

Yes I am yet another new graduate looking for a job. I have applied to just about every company I can find, but I have yet to obtain much of a response. It is frustrating, because I know I have the skills to be a great transcriptionist, if a company would only give me a chance. I learn fast, work hard and love the work. I am willing to work for a substantionally reduced rate during a probationary period. Does anyone know of any companies that will give me a chance? Working in a local office until I gain experience is not an option for me. Any advice and/or tips you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I am in the same boat. However i just started looking. Hope we both find something soon.

I don't know how much this will help, but I have a home based business, and it is a great way to earn income. This might be an option for you. I could give you more information if you are interested.

What kind of business?

we educate people on the harmful and often toxic chemicals they are using in their homes or personal care and offer them an alternative. It's easy and there is no risk.

If you are interested, I could schedule a time that you could watch a web presentation about the company and how they work. Just let me know and I would be glad to do it.

A lot of companies include an assessment test as part of the application process. If you pass the test, then they more than likely will hire you. Have you tried MxSecure or Superior Global yet? While you're "in between" jobs, perhaps think about picking up some freelance work doing transcriptions of webcasts/podcasts via oDesk or Guru? You could also check out the forums at MtStars.com to see if they have anything worth applying to.
