Hey man (?, want to say man but then i see a pink unicorn in ur avatar so idk not that i'm judging lol) to answer your question I got a BSEE back in May 11. It took me 3 months to land a job, I guess it really isn't that long but what helped me is that I know a lot of people so everyone was trying to help me out. I think the hardest part was that 2 year gap I had from the moment I graduated till the moment I got my job. But it is very doable man, the smaller that gap is the easier time you will have. I applied to lots of jobs and got about 10 interviews. During the interview process, every interviewer asked about the gap and a few even mentioned that I barely made it to the interview process because of that.

What is an application engineer?

I googled it, and was wondering...do you design things like Microsoft Word type programs? Do you design operating systems?

I'm planning on applying as a waiter for the Hard Rock Cafe here in Orlando at Universal. I heard the pay is good and the tips are even better (The waiter said that during touristy seasons like the summer, Halloween, Christmas, and Spring Break, making $100 in just tips in one night is a let down)!
I'll only be able to work there in the summers though, since I'll be at FIU in Miami for the Fall/Spring, but either way, it'll help a lot! Plus, if I get an on-campus job, it'll all just be spending money.

Just grinding a job in construction at the moment, not the best but it pays the bills I guess.

I don't do that but some people might.. I'm like an inside sales engineer, I'm the link between sales department, engineering, and project managers.

See below a description from the web.

To the young dreamers still in college or freshly graduated and about to get a job in their field, keep this in mind. Respect yo profession and you will get respect back. Don't miss a day of work unless its a medical emergency. The only downside to my job is there is no health insurance but i've learnt my lesson i'm not complaining. I used to give a tough time to my parents when there were no papers crying and throwing tantrums about not being able to drive and get a job. Well now i have both and my struggle has actually doubled. Hoping it pays off in the near future. Until then will continue paying my dues. Gl to all!

amen!
