    You may have to begin by working in an area that isn't where you hope to end up someday. You might have to work as a lab tech or even do custodial duties cleaning cages, mopping the floor, etc. The main thing is, especially in this poor job climate, you want to get your foot in the door by being willing to do ANYthing, as long as you are near animals.

    Check around everywhere for a job -- animal clinics, shelters, even zoos. Volunteer for a while, if that's what it takes, or do a free internship.

    Speaking of internships, didn't you have at least one during your schooling? And why isn't your school helping place its graduates?
