Job? Graduate School? Both?

http://www.careerbuilder.com/

Well while I'm compiling my research and creating my report, I decided to set up a careerbuilder job alert. For anyone who has not used this service it helps find jobs nationwide. It's a great and FREE service. You create a job search based on keywords and alerts are emailed to you when a job description that matches your alert is posted.  The bonus features: you can narrow or widen your search by areas that you would prefer to work in, you can use a group of key words and use "any" or "all" of the words. For my keywords of the following: graphics, photography, desktop publishing, media communications, I have found that the majority of the jobs in these areas are located in Washington, DC, Philadelphia, NY, and VA with a small amount in Allentown and suburbs of NY and NJ. I'm not suprised at this at all, and for the right job I would commute or relocate. I am going to add a new keyword to my search regarding teaching and online teaching to see what is available.

Graduate school is looking appealing. I'd like to get some sort of employment, even if it's part time while attending graduate school. Probably in a school, community college or university setting where I can get some experience in the education field or at the very least.... my foot in the door.
