Find a good fit

A person fresh out of college with a shiny new degree in public relations might experience a little bit of desperation when entering the job market. Realize that not every job will be right for you. You may have to wait a little while to find the job that fits but being a little choosy will pay of in the end.


You should try to find a job with a company that you feel good about. If you are committed to your right-to-life stance, then a job with Planned Parenthood is not going to be a good match for you. Not all mismatches are this obvious but even little differences in ideology can make you miserable. A good test is how you feel when you tell other people that you are considering the company. If you are proud of the job, the match is probably good. On the other hand, if you are making excuses and saying the job is good "for now", you might keep looking.
