Use the resources at the Millsaps Career Center and pursue internships:

"Intern, intern, intern and intern"

"I highly recommend internships as a way to test the waters with a career beforehand, but since they don't pay much, be prepared to work really hard to prove yourself quickly!"

"Do internships, even unpaid internships, during the summer, rather than an unrelated job to make money."

"I actually had no idea what type of career I was going to pursue upon graduation. It was probably my biggest source of stress. I utilized the Millsaps Career Center quite a bit, and my first job was a direct result of an internship I completed my senior year."
