I have an degree in administration and will be graduating with a degree in marketing this May. I am have some trouble trying to get an internship or an "entry level" job but they both require a certain amount of years of experience. I've checked on Indeed and Linkedln but Ive had no luck. I have experience in the non-profit industry as a guest service manager and some experience with payroll from a small business. Any advice on what I can do to stand out and get an interview? Thanks.

Amazon is currently taking college students for internships and some might need relocation but I can get you a referral or lCheck on LinkedIn too . I saw postings this week . There tough to get in but if you get a referral sometimes it helps . There internship are paid or Walmart logistics they also sometimes have internships .

I'd imagine you're DOA. Marketing is not a field you want to be in. You should follow the administration route and try to get something in public education and potentially convert that marketing degree or reuse credits for something related to that. Maybe, the economy improves by then but I doubt it. Check your college's job fair and cut salary expectations to bone. I really see no path other than education.

I'm currently in a process for senior associate at a Big4. The process began on July, yet between the first and second interview it took like 3-4 weeks. And between the 2nd and 3rd like 7 weeks. I sent an email to HR during those weeks asking for an update and didn't have an answer. Then it a 3rd one was scheduled three times (the manager didn't connect to the first 2) and next week I have the last interview with 1 partner. Is the timing normal? Or were they looking for other candidates or what?
