I don't consider myself as an expert but here's my say on the topic:
Here's a fact: Most refreshers seeks company that offers a high paying job which I think in my own personal opinion is wrong. Think about it. why seek for a more high pay job when you don't have enough experience yet.
Personal Story: I started as junior programmer working on Windows and Web apps with C#. The company offered me a very low salary but I didn't mind that because I know that I'm a fresher and worst I don't have any experience on C# (I'm coming from a VB6). I struggled alot during those times because I don't have any experience in the framework and worst not really familiar about the web and how stuff works in the stateless world. What I did is to do self-study and start leaning the basics ~ i have no choice because I really need the job. So I stayed in the company for a year and gain more experience and took the opportunities to learn things. Once I'm confident enough for the skill sets that I acquired then that's the time that I started looking for a better company that offers a bit higher salary BUT I didn't leave my job right away because I wanted to make sure that I get hired first in the other company before leaving. I needed to secure my job as I am the breadwinner in the family and looking for another company without a job is not an option to me.
The moral here is that as a fresher you need to forget about salary first and instead focus on your learning. Just code, code and code to gain more experience. Once you have enough experience then that's the time for you to look for a company that pays better. In fact if you are really good at what you are doing then most company will look for you instead.
Now my suggestion to your current situation is go a head and find for a job that interest you. If you can't find for any fresher position then try to look for a job that requires less than 2 years of experience. If you are lucky to be short listed and be interviewed then just tell them the truth. And don't forget to impress them by selling the skills and experience you gained for that 5 months duration of your previous job. Also it may be worth telling them about the interesting projects that you've work on during your college.Take note, don't try to impress them by saying YES to questions when i fact you don't know. Instead tell them that you don't know the answer but you are willing and eager to learn things. I think that's the least thing you can do.
