What sort of entry-level business-related jobs are there?

I'm a bit surprised too, and it's the first (can't find work). This was hardly what I expected to happen with my background and experience, but life is throwing me a real zinger of a curveball. I've been applying for anything I'm even remotely qualified for in my area, from Helpdesk to Jr. Admin stuff.

I'm hesitant to move for monetary reasons. That said, whereabouts do you live? If the market is truly favorable, moving may be my best choice.

Southeast TN. Think like the area surrounding Oak Ridge. Lots of GoCo IT support; Boeing, SAIC, Leidos. I see it on indeed.com, which honestly is my main fishing hole.

Hm

The real key to my suggestion is the networking on LinkedIn.    I swear by it.    Some people hate it, but recruiters are usually open to connect with anyone.  Every time you connect you can write a message - use it.   I've had conversations with people I don't know on many occasions this way.    Also, join groups on LinkedIn - you can easily meet people who will be willing to help - if you're sincere and show that you appreciate their words of wisdom.
