^^I am not saying you should ONLY do one thing. You could take a class AND volunteer lol. </p>

<p>IMO, it is okay to have those types of jobs while you are in school. However, once you get out, 6+ months of volunteering & other activities > 6+ months of being paid to pick up trash and volunteering. </p>

<p>As long as you LOOK like you’ve kept busy doing interesting/productive things on your resume, I’d leave off the “menial” jobs. The resume section is called “relevant experience” - you don’t have nor want to include everything. For good or for bad, if you’ve graduated with a 4+ year degree and were stuck in a low skill/wage job for months after graduating, it often reflects poorly upon you. Which sucks, because I agree, it shouldn’t at all.

<p>By the way, kevster1001, how’s that working out for you? It’s hard enough applying for DC jobs from NY.</p>
