How long did it take for you to get your first full-time job? How many resumes did you send?

Got interviewed on the spot and called with the job offer 30mins afterwards.

It was my first job I applied to (my first-first job was working for my aunt at her sandwich shop), as a clerk at a locally owned apparel shop.

Now, I average about 5-20 apps per interview, but because I have such a specialized skillset I've managed to progress my career through my network. I'm planning to continue that approach, and get more certifications so I'm appealing to poachers.

Worked fulltime in highschool, never sent a resume. One of my teachers husband’s owned the gas station so go set up that way
