If you haven't secured your offer yet (like me, my senior year), now is the time to really get out there. There are many quality companies still looking to give college students the start to their career. Don't just sit at your computer applying online at a job-posting site or directly with companies. Your chances are very slim of securing offers or even interviews among the thousands of students applying for the same job that interests you. Get to your career center on campus or subscribe to their email list to notify you of companies that will be conducting interviews on campus or having "open houses". Would you rather play poker at a table with the World Series of Poker all-stars or with a bunch of people who don't know an ace from a spade? I'm not saying you're more intelligent or marketable to a recruiter than the man or woman next to you, but less people will apply for an on campus interview opportunity and you get to sell yourself in person rather than being judged soley on your stats when you apply on-line. There is still time, but the duration of time from your first interview all the way to the offer being handed down can last several weeks to several months. Do the math.
