Hard to find a career job in vancouver...?

I've graduated for a year now and I am finding it difficult to land a good career job in Vancouver Canada. I have a bachelor degree in Forest resource management, which i find is quite useless in finding jobs. It is also true for art degree graduates and certain science graduates as well. I am specifically looking for jobs in the business field but with my degree and lack of experience as a new graduate, i am finding it stressful to find jobs. I am even thinking of moving back to Taiwan to find a job there. Right now, I've worked three months at mcdonalds as a cashier and now i am working at a paint store as a sales associate (i am finding the jobs to be unfulfilling). I'd like to find a job that will have great advancement opportunities. To the new graduates, how is the job search so far and how is it finding your first job???Hard to find a career job in vancouver...?
It's very hard to find a job right now, though Canada's unemployment rate is 1.7 points less than that in the US.



Reportedly, there are jobs east of you in Alberta but I suspect they're not career path ones: http://jobbingo.blogspot.com/2011/06/mov鈥?/a>



Most jobs, you'll find, are not fulfilling despite the sunshine job authors push.



Your chosen field is a tad esoteric. Hopefully you're networking (LinkedIn, for example) with people in the government in that field, private industry, the national association, the magazine site.



Unless you can show the business employer that your lack of degree doesn't matter because you have the training/skills to help them, you may be starting in the subbasement. Unless you want to go into sales.
