Help! Whats the best way to get a graduate job? and why is it so hard?!?

First, remember one small job is a stepping stone to another. Being employed and working is very important for further references. You may have to do something that you feel is beneath your qualifications, but you never know the qualities most employer's are looking for, I have heard of new positions being made within firms/companies due to an employees potential, this will take you forward. Your learning and qualifications to date have not been done for nothing.
