College Graduates need jobs (and experience)

Got that $100k job lined up? Or do you owe $100k for that piece of sheepskin that you sweated over for the past 4 years.

Well, if you don't have the job of the lifetime lined up, consider volunteering in the parks. In this crappy economy, parks are likely to suffer when budgets dwindle.

Try http://www.nps.gov/volunteer/ for one source of experiences that you can add to the resume. Type in volunteer opportunity in GOOGLE to see what pops up. Visit your local park and ask what you can do.

It will be a great experience helping the park, and you get a great tan. It might even land you a full time job.

Think about it.
