I want to get my first assistant manager job at Radio Shack. I have worked at a Super Target for a year. They trained me in 13 different positions including everywhere from backroom, flow team, instocks, hairlines, softlines, market, signing, presentation, cashier, cart attendant (to clean up chemical spills), guest services, and also electronics. I know the bases of sale and I am very good at taking on a lot at one time. I know in a position like that I would definitely make more than I do now... but I just wanted to know if I would even be considered.. please help?

In May, I graduated from university with an English Degree. Since then I have been searching for a job, but have had no luck. I have posted resumes on the major job sites and apply whenever I find a match. I was a working student so I didn't do an internship, but I have good people skills, excellent written and verbal communication skills, and a stellar academic history. My situation is getting a little desperate. Does anyone have any advice on other avenues that I can pursue to maximize my chances of finding a job? By the way, I don't want to teach.

I'm learning German at the moment, and I've decided I want to go into languages as a profession when I'm older. I only know the one language, apart from my own, English. What are jobs involved in languages that aren't a translator or teacher? I haven't done business at GCSE, does this mean I won't be able to go into business?
