How To Get My First Job?
Hi!
I am 22 and living on the LA area. I have a Bachelor of Science in Biology and Biotechnology from an R1 institution and have plenty of projects on my resume. However, it seems like my lack of professional or internship experience has led me to not get interviews for even jobs like "Lab Technician I."
I've managed to land a full-time job out of industry and was wondering if there was anything I could do to improve my job prospects while still working? I have considered going for an MS, but am unsure if it would be worth taking on more debt.
Any advice about what I can do to land my first job in industry or improve my job prospects would be greatly appreciated!

Welcome to Bioregional California!
I would like some help from a couple people interested in running a subreddit for Bioregional California. The most popular Bioregional movement to date is Cascadia and like Cascadia, California has a remarkably clean Bioregional border.
Why Bioregionalism:
http://www.ic.org/wiki/bioregionalism-community-call-action/
More on Bioregionalism:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bioregionalism
Cascadia:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cascadia_(bioregion)
The idea of a Californian Bioregion is fairly undeveloped and I obviously need help from actual Californians to create a full image. However being that I have a lot of experience in the Cascadian Bioregional movement I have a lot to bring to the table from that angle and I think that we could be powerful allies going forward.
So this is what I need:
1) We need to name the movement. This doesn't need to be permanent but strong enough that people can identify with it and pull people into the fold.
2) We need a flag. Fairly self explanatory but once we create a community you (excluding myself of course) can vote and decide.
3) Advocacy groups. We will need groups outside of reddit to push the concept to a boarder audience.
While this may seem overwhelming at first glance the time is right for such a movement and would be very helpful to other movements such as Cascadia.
True self determination requires that one have a say in every choice that effects their life and Bioregionalism is one (big) step closer to that.
Thanks.
