How did you get your first job as a market maker?

I was just finishing up my MBA in Finance and I really wanted to get into trading and particularly options. Since I am from Chicago I went and dropped off resumes and talked to anyone who would listen to me at the CBOE and CBOT. But that's not how I got it. Actually I answered an ad in the newspaper. My first firm was big at the CBOE and were looking to expand into interest options at the CBOT and targeting fresh MBAs so it was just what the doctor ordered.
