Exercise Science in Public Health?

Hi all,

I recently graduated from college with a B.S. degree in Exercise Science, and I’m interested in pursuing a career in Public Health, but having a hard time finding a job that will give me good experience. Do you guys have any advice on what to look for or what I can do to get my foot in the door in the Public Health field? I’m considering getting an MPH in the future, but that’s not gonna happen for a little while.

Thanks for the help.
