Ideas on How to Get a Job if you don't have Experience

While perusing the MiForum discussion threads, I found this thread discussing various ways to get your foot in the door for recent grads, and new people to the Meetings and Hospitality Industry.

Click Here to go to the thread for more information.

Most people reiterated that the best ways to get a new job are:

- Networking, Networking, Networking!
- Volunteer for an Organization.
- Do a paid or unpaid internship.
- Don't be afraid to take a basic entry level position after graduation.
- Find a position with someone who is willing to mentor you in your profession.
- Contact industry leaders for "informational sessions" to learn more about
what they do and how they gained experience.
