OK...let me bring you up to speed quickly:
Graduated with my BA in English, went to the UK, did my master's in Information Systems and Management--going for an all-encompassing approach to communications here. Came back to Florida, did commercial real estate brokerage till March, and have now decided to get into marketing.
Now I can't get a job.
I've been applying since January to anything that has to do with marketing and under 3 years work experience (all together, I've got a year and a half, but I've got master's so that has to be worth something, yes?). And it's just not working. I've had work experience as a Project Coordinator and a contractual marketing strategist before grad school.
I've gotten the final interview for about 3-4 jobs, and that's been it.
Is there something I'm doing wrong, or any avenues worth exploring in my job search? It's been really really frustrating. Please feel free to look at my resume if you'd like--I can send it.
Please, any advise would be helpful.
Thanks!
