Hi Everyone! I'm new here at the chat. I have been searching for employment, I will be graduating in about 2 weeks from an on-line MT school. My problem is there are so many jobs out there, anyway listed on-line, but hardly any want us beginngers! HA. Anyway, can any one suggest a good company to start with to get my 3-5years experence for all the jobs I seem to find Thanks!

Your best bet is to search the New MT and MT Company forums with keywords like new, newbie, entry-level (making sure to blank out the newer than boxes), as this question gets asked fairly frequently.
You also might want to take the time to do a quick proofread on posts, as well, since there are some employers that read these forums (especially if you're going to be looking for IC work rather than employee).

Well, it depends on the school. Andrews and MTEC graduates seem to get multiple job offers to choose from. CS is affiliated with at least one major company that hires their graduates. Going with any other school is a crapshoot at best. I have heard graduates from community college programs (meaning NOT an online school) say they experienced some difficulty, possibly because companies are somewhat reluctant to hire grads from an unknown program.
