How do i get into big jobs. Give me some tips?
Im a graduate from last year, 28 years old and I am looking for work with a starting salary of around £30k per year but I know that £40k-£50k per year is possible for a few.
LinkedIn is a good start for me, but what are the other tips?

Step 1: Be complete.
You want a "big job", ask us to make suggestions and tell us you graduated last year. You didn't tell us what your degree is.
Providing you "tips" on getting into "big jobs" depends on what you know and who you know. We know neither because your question is incomplete.
For example, for all we know, your degree is in international gender studies or social work, but the "big jobs" are in finance or tech sales...
One of the things school does is help introduce you to people with similar interests. Hopefully your networked with them... Where and how did they get their jobs? Can you work their, too? Why do you think you are worth the pay-rate you stated?

Patience. The big jobs come as a reward and promotion for decades of dedicated work. You won't be walking into one a year after graduating.

You are a new graduate with no proved experience with grand ideas.......... as you didn't seem to get experience in your field of work while studying with companies who wanted you to remain full time which is too late to think about now...so lower your expectations as very few companies will employ a new unproved graduate on above average salary simply as they don't need to as there are plenty of people who are graduates along with several years of experience who are worth employing as they can DO the job and can prove they can do the job.... so the tip is get a job, any job in your field and accept whatever salary they are offering so you can learn the job, not just the theory
