Question Do you have any good advice

Hi,
My name is John Olav Ofstad,and I am from Norway.
The reason why I am posting this, is because I am srarting at a helicopter school in San Francisco very soon.I will start in the very beginning of october. The school I am going to attend is Helicopter adventures Inc.
I visited the school earlier this year,and I have to say that I got a good impression of the school.
I will get a j-visa that give me the opportunity to stay in the US for 24 months.I hope I can be able to finish the school in approximately 9 months.This gives me a little bit more than a year to stay in the US to build up my hours.
So my question is,do anyone out there have any good advice on how to get that important first job? I know that most people start out as CFI`s. Tunaboat operations is also something I am interested in,but I don`t know much about it. Maybe you do?
If you have any good tips,or know the right people,I would really appreciate if you dropped a line or two.
Sincerely
John Olav Ofstad
