Job searching, what types of jobs am I qualified for?

I just graduated from college and earned a bachelors of arts in sociology and I was wondering what types of careers am I skilled to apply for? Also, it seems like there arn't that many jobs for college graduates that don't require you to have more than 3 years of experience. I am finding it hard to find a job where you don't need experience for other than sales positions which is not something that I would be interested in. I am wondering where to look for jobs other than hotjobs and monster. Where did you guys find your careers from and did you have a hard time deciding what you were qualified for?

Job searching, what types of jobs am I qualified for?
I am sorry to say but Sociology was kind of a useless degree. You need a masters in that do anything and usually research. you can work for child protective services as a case worker or group home kind of thing. There is no job that says you need to have sociology degree


Sorry to anyone that reads this that has that degree
Reply:my boyfriend graduated last may with an busn/econ degree and has had a lot of trouble findin a job as well. Honestly I think that hotjobs/monster are all BullShit. Half of them are scams and people on the other end never even look at them. Try Craigslist I've had some luck there. Also I would say try to do an internship this will give you a good refrence and some extrat experience. If you are interested I would try to get into social work, and work your way up. Its tough. I am finishing up my associates degree and deciding wheter to continue and spend the money for a bachelors because everyone i talk to struggles to find a job when they graduate... goodluck on your search!
