If you are a new graduate, how do you feel about your current job prospects? Has the tough economy forced you to rethink your career plans?

I just found a great source for jobs called “Hound” – http://www.Hound.com/ . What they do is collect new job listings from tens of thousands of employer websites so the listings are coming directly from the companies that have job openings. Since they’re constantly updating their listings they always have the newest jobs available, plus they‘re doing all the research for you which saved me lots of time!
