Should I Take Any Job or Wait For Something in My Field?

You've graduated from college (congratulations!) and set forth to make your mark on the world. Unfortunately, finding a decent job in your chosen profession is proving challenging. Should you take any job you can get just to show some work experience on your resume or should you hold out for something in your field?

Career Confused writes:

I graduated from college last year but have been stuck in the can't get a job without experience, can't get experience without a job loop. Should I try to get a job flipping burgers or volunteering for the experience, or would this field unrelated-work work against me? Is it worse to keep looking for an entry level position or internship if it means risking going another year without either?
