If you've only been there for a few months, it might be better to stay for a while rather than looking for something right now. For one thing, anything less than 6 months looks a little funny on a resume, particularly if you have several stints like that. And things still seem a little shaky out there right now - even though the unemployment figures are dropping a bit they're not taking into account that a lot of people have become "self-employed" out of desperation, and it's not clear that they're doing terribly well. If you're able, use your entry-level job to grab every bit of free training that you can, or at least use your spare time to develop skills that might help you in whatever job/field you want to jump to next. Things won't always be this dismal and it'll pay then to have good skills so you can move to something more satisfying.
