TPowell · 10-23-12, 10:24 PM

nobody has any experience working as a cashier or any other type of full time job for a company like Caesars?

Why would want to be a cashier for Caesar's if you have a Finance degree? I'm pretty sure most of their cashier's are hourly and don't make much money.

It's not as cool of a job as you think. I would try to find something better with your degree and then just travel to Vegas a few times a year.

Maybe I misunderstood you. You're not wanting to be a cashier are you?

not sure why I typed that, the majority of the jobs I applied for are analysis and finance/accounting type jobs

I have a degree in economics and work for a casino in the finance/accounting field.

It was a real pain in the ass finding a quality job out of college but I'm really thankful I have the job that I do. The pay and benefits are great.

You do have to be careful about the jobs you apply for. Casinos employee a ton of people and many of them are hourly employees that probably make around $10-12 an hour. At this stage in your life, you don't want an hourly gig.

You need to make sure you have a 401k, a few weeks of vacation, sick time, bonuses, and a good salary. You may also inquire about your work schedule as casinos are open 24/7. With that said, you are probably already aware of all this.

I work 8-5 Monday through Friday so it's great for me. It's also cool getting a quarterly bonus and flying to Vegas for a weekend every three months. Of course, I like to have fun.

It's hard to get interviews by sending out resumes. Employers receive hundreds and thousands of resumes so it's hard to stand out in a pile of paper. The job I applied for had over 100 applicants. If you can, try delivering your resume in person so they have a face to go along with the piece of paper.

Half the battle is getting an interview. GL.
