It's depend on your luck, job position, your interview skill, and your personality.
If you r the choosy type, definately have to wait. Usually good/best job hard to get. Too many people apply for it. |

Took me 6 months to get my first job. Then took me 4 years to get to my second job although I got few offers but rejected it.

got my 1st job after 1 1/2 month.But the truth is it actually depends on your luck of applying the right job at the right time and also you need soft skills,your excellent academic result carries little weight,if at all these days...considering the current situation,a fresh graduate should be able to get a job within 6 months....

depends on how much effort you put in your job hunt. just relying on sending mass resume online doesnt work.

Took about 2 mths b4 landing my 1st job. The pay was an afterthought, cause felt it was more important to have a job 1st. Cabut after 4 mths when a better offer came & stayed with that company since.
