More and more college students are starting to take advantage of the few years of freedom post-graduation, choosing to pursue other paths instead of jumping right into a nine-to-five, full-time career.
If you're a recent graduate who's hesitant to jump into the "real" work world, consider doing something else with your time, like interning, volunteering, or traveling. However, whatever you choose to do, make sure you think hard about your decision, as you want to be sure you have quality experiences to list on your resume when you do choose to begin the job search for a more permanent career.

**1. Adventure Guide**
     Are you the adventurous type? Whether you're into white water rafting, skydiving, rock climbing, abseiling, kayaking, snorkeling, bungee jumping—turn it into a part-time or even a full-time job. Many adventure companies look for young people to hire.
     There are opportunities both within the United States and also internationally, as many companies look to hire eager, English-speaking guides due to the popularity of these types of activities among college students who are abroad.

**2. Invest in Your Passion**
     Do you love yoga or pilates? Can't spend enough time on the ski slopes? Are you a rock-climbing pro? Love to paint? If you have a passion that you can turn into a part-time job, consider investing in a training course and get certified, or even teach it on your own.
     Whatever you love to do, look into how you can make a job out of it. Not only will you have a blast at work, but you'll gain the experience and skills you need to turn your hobby into a job that you can always fall back on.

**3. Pursue a Part-Time Job That You're Passionate About**
     If you don't feel you're ready to jump into a nine-to-five career, take the year off working a part-time job in an area you're passionate about, or somewhere you've always thought about working, like at a flower shop, for example, but never had the time to try it out.
     Not only does this give you the opportunity to pad your bank account post-college, but, it could develop into more promising opportunities down the road.
     
**4. Work Seasonal Jobs**
     If you want a range of colorful, varied positions to add to your resume, pursuing a few seasonal jobs for a year is a fun way to get diverse work experience while also enjoying yourself. There are many types of seasonal jobs - positions at ski resorts, beaches, resorts, and cruise ships. If you plan wisely, you can find employment for a full year in this way.

**5. Travel Recreationally**
     The best time to travel is after college when you are free of obligations to a job. If you have the opportunity to travel, you should do so when you can, as it broadens your perspective and is an important life experience.
     If you decide to travel, make the most of it and take photos, or blog about it. You can then share whatever you come up with as an example of your multimedia, writing, or web design skills.

**6. Do a Gap Year Program**
     If you're interested in putting your time towards a good career, consider a gap year program like the Peace Corps, AmeriCorps, or City Year.
     Not only do these programs provide essential life lessons, but they also strengthen your resume and will undoubtedly give you a lot of material to discuss during an interview. Moreover, having participated in a Gap Year program links you with other alumni who may be valuable resources later on in your job search.

**7. Work at Your College**
     If you decide to continue living close to your college, consider pursuing a job there, whether it is in administration or education. There are many jobs to be had on college campuses. 
     These types of jobs can be especially convenient if you still live in your college town, and can also lead to further opportunities, like the funding of post-graduate classes or even a degree, as many universities will allow their employees to take classes for free.

**8. Take a Continuing-Education Class**
     Whether you're interested in pursuing a field other than what you majored in or want to develop career-specific skills further, consider taking continuing-education classes at a community college or an adult-learning center in your area.
     For example, if you were an English major but want to pursue a different field, like computer programming or graphic design, taking classes gives you a foundation to begin looking for entry-level jobs in that field.

**9. Start your own business**
     If you have an idea for a great product or a strong passion, starting your own business can be the best way to create your dream job. For example, if you're passionate and knowledgeable about physical fitness and earned a degree in business, you are well situated to start your own personal training company.

**10. Start a career in Youtuber, Vlogger, Blogger, but remember one thing where ever you go what ever you do do it passion, Work Hard**
