About to Graduate, what to do next?!
Hi,
I'm a senior guy in college studying business and I'm only a couple months from graduating. I feel a huge amount of stress to go out find a job and start a career but I have no idea how to go about doing it. I live in the northwest of the US and want to move somewhere new. Also I am currently living with my parents and feel a huge urgency to get out of the house and on my own as soon as possible.
I also love to travel so I'm also looking into possibly teaching English overseas or something like that. I am proactive and outgoing and so I already have some interviews with companies but I'm so confused I don't know who I even wanna work for even if one wanted to hire me. I feel like I have no time to think cause I have a part time job as well as going to school.
I've already talked about it with friends and family but I feel like sometimes they just give me answers they think I wanna hear so that's why I decided to post up a question here.
My question is should I focus on trying to get a job overseas teaching English, or should I try to get a job here in the states? Also if I try and get a job in the states what's the best way of trying to get a job somewhere else in another state?
Any advice for my situation is greatly appreciated. Thanks

Your entire future does not need to be decided in the next few months! if you have a heart to teach overseas, by all means, pursue it! You can't know what you want if you don't try some things first. As long as you can support yourself, I see nothing wrong with getting out there and testing the waters for a few years.

I think it would be a fantastic idea to go overseas. I understand where you're coming from. I'm a sophomore in college now and I've been feeling like I just can't see myself outside of school. I have no idea what that would be like .I think that would be a good adventure, something to look forward to, and you'd probably be great at it to! It would clear your mind of a lot of things. You can always move back to the states, but it's not like life ends here. You don't need to feel anxious about going out and building your own business. You're still young. You're probably like what... 22 or so?? Don't sweat it. Do whatever your heart desires. I really think you should go overseas. You might learn a lot about yourself. And I understand what it's like to not want to live at home either. That, I do have a great urgency to get out of. I think that once you do, you'll feel more comfortable building your dream career.
I hope I helped and good luck. Congratulations on graduating!
Cristy :)
