After Graduating Grad school...

What do most optometrists do when they just get out?

I heard it's hard to get a job if you don't have experience yet or money, so are you stuck with a low paying job until you get your own practice?

The only thing I can think of is working at Walmart, Costco, maybe Kaiser Perm. or some other company, but do you work for them, or is that your own practice in their store/medical building?

What are the options that newly graduated optometrists have? Please share your experiences and opinons. THANKS!
