Getting a job is only getting harder these days, especially when many "entry-level" positions want you to already have several years of experience. Sometimes, that experience comes from unpaid internships, but those aren't practical for many people.
So, if you've ever worked an entry-level job that helped set you up for a lucrative career, I want to know all about it!
Maybe you started as an administrative assistant in a company and worked your way up to becoming the CEO's personal assistant.
Or perhaps you got your real estate license after college and now, your portfolio could rival that of anyone on Selling Sunset.
Or maybe, after starting your career in customer service, you're now the manager of the entire department.
So tell me all about the entry-level job that set you up for a high-paying career! How'd you get the job? What were the best and worst things about it? What do you do now? Share your answers in the comments, and they may be featured in an upcoming BuzzFeed Community post!
