参考答案：

Find a Job First
College students' options upon graduation vary from person to person. Some students choose to hunt for a job while others prefer to start their own business. As for me, I would rather find a job first.
The reasons for my decision are as follows. For one thing, it is much easier for me to find a job compared with starting a business which demands fund, experience and the market. As a green hand who has just graduated from a college, it's totally beyond my ability to handle such a complex situation. For another, working for others could develop my personalities, such as perseverance, hardworking and stress tolerance ability, which can help me become more prepared and qualified if I would like to start up my own business.
To conclude, chances always favor those who are prepared. And I don't think a person could really "build up from nothing". As a result, I will find a job first after graduation.
