[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How many jobs did your recent grad apply to during their senior year/post grad before getting one? And what was their major? DD is a math major at a mid level big 10 school and started applying with a 2.9 and is finding it difficult. Everyone wants to know her gpa and she gets cut.[/quote] Can she lie, or are these companies actually asking for transcripts? When I've been involved in background checks on new hires, the education verification has never gone beyond confirming the degree itself and the date it was earned. Nothing about GPA, even if it was asked for on the application. [/quote] For a fresh grad, in a directly relevant field, I'd 100% ask for transcripts. I may not care about the overall low GPA if the major GPA is solid.[/quote]
