"Network, network, network.  Keep in touch with mentors like you, speakers in the class, LinkedIn (keep your profile up to date, post articles that are pertinent to what you do to keep visible, etc.), get advice on resume (out of college your resume should not be more than one page, always name the file with your name in it, send as pdf., etc.)  .  Join associations and attend conferences.  See some links below:"
