I have graduated a year and a half ago with an Economics major from a non targeted school. I was not able to find an internship while i was in school due to lack of work experience. I started working at a car dealership while was in school to make some money. When i finished college i was promoted, but it was still sales. I also started getting an accounting certificate through an extension program to sit for the CPA exam. I will be finishing that next month. I am looking for a finance job but have not had any luck since i dont have any experience in this field. Let me know what i can do to find a job that is finance related.
