I don't know what part of LA County you are in but if you go to a WorkSource location, which is part of the EDD, they can give you information on different websites and they help you with resumes and how to do interviews. I have this one phone number, 213-629-5800. If that is not close to you, I'm sure they can give you an office near you. They have helped me and I hope this will help you.

Unfortunately, having a bachelors and masters tend to be of no help for getting a job in your field in Los Angeles and elsewhere. I don't know a single college graduate who is actually working in the field they studied for. For awhile, just about anybody could get a job in Silicon Valley in a computer company, but they had a huge crash and burn more than a year ago that wiped out 2/3s of the jobs. I'd suggest getting into a temp agency and hoping that some company you are temping for will remember you when they find it necessary to get a new person. They'll have to pay a headhunter's fee to the temp agency, so you will really need to stick into their mind as a good worker. Oh, and to titna_07 - the questioner said 'county', not country, nor do any of the answers use 'country'.

My advice is to focus less on your credentials and more on what you can do and what you enjoy doing. For most jobs degrees are usually just technicalities - its what you have actually done and what you can actually do that really count. I would also suggest concentrating on what you *really* (deep in your heart!) enjoy doing. If you enjoy doing something you'll be very, very good at it. You'll also be happy and that's gotta be worth something! Good luck! :-)

Transportation/Logistics masters degree with Information Technology background = What kind of career?
I'm getting my masters degree in Transportation and Logistics Management, and I have 7 years experience working in IT doing PC support, most recently contracting with state government. What kind of careers put those together? I'm not looking to do helpdesk at a logistics facility or anything... i'd rather get out of IT in that capacity.

Depending on the depth of your IT background, you could have a promising career as a technical coordinator for transportation/logistics. What this includes is finding out how technology can be used for your company, determining the hardware/software costs, determining the functional capacity of the hardware/software, integrating the hardware/software, and managing the installation and maintenance of the hardware/software. This really makes your title a roving one. In this capacity, you will transition from a project coordinator to a project manager to a technical manager of some sort. The only problem is convincing the company that they need this level of technology and someone to manage it.

Dental school is different altogether. Expect to spend many years to become a dentist or only several months if you want to be a hygienist.
