In grad school we never once mentioned the thought of even glancing at newspaper classifieds for jobs; the main way we were told/discussed to find jobs was networking, whether in person, through social media or email. And honestly, after looking for work in NYC and other smaller metros, that really was the only way that I ever even got a call back, let alone an interview. The same is true for my current job; I'm over qualified for it, but honestly I probably wouldn't have gotten it if I didn't intern for the markcomm agency my company uses (thereby getting the job through referral). If I had to compare, I would say the closest thing to finding a job in the newspaper classifieds these days would be finding one on Craigslist, which is much more feasible and not a total crapshoot if you're in a larger city (like NYC).Ashleynoreply@blogger.com
