Recent Unt Grad Looking For Work....

sports88guy · August 23, 2010

I thought on the old board that we used to have a job forum area but did not see one on the new and improved board. I am a recent UNT grad with a recreation and leisure degree. I am looking for entry level work in such fields and would really appreciate if anyone knew of any leads or possible job openings. If you would like you can send me a message on here or to my email at kylelwise@aol.com, i appreciate any help i may receive.

Why not send a pm to ParksandRecRick.

You're the guy who did the baseball job, right? Are you looking for more careers in sports? I'd try the HigherEd jobs site and sign up for the Teamwork online database -- plus check the job section of the websites for every major/minor league organization you can think of. It takes a lot of persistence to break into a field everyone wants to work in, but persistence and networking are going to be what sets you apart.

Also, try setting up an informational interview or two as well -- especially with our AD since you're a recent grad.

Good luck!
