Answer: It's always hard to leave school and hit the working world.  I'm suprised that your school didn't have guidance councelors or anyone helping you figure out how to get a job after you graduate.  It's also normal to be scared and unsure at this point.\n\nI know we had information that said what we should do to help us get jobs.  They said if you didn't have practical experience in your field you should somehow manage to get it.  Work part-time in your field, get an internship while still in school and  volunteer somewhere that would count towards your field.\n\nYou may have to move elsewhere to get a job and/or start with a really low wage until you get the experience you need.  I'd see if your school has a placement agency or someone who could advise you better on what would help you get a job.  Also ask your instructor for advice.\n\nGood luck :)
