[quote=Anonymous]What GPA do they need to get a job? The primary GPA screening tool at most universities is that many employers recruit through the online career services of the university and can select screens like "Must have GPA > 3.6." Not all employers screen GPA at all, and those that do have drastically different requirements. I remember my brother in engineering needed a 3.0 standing to keep his internship. Many of my students (I won't say what field) need a 3.6 to go to top companies but they can drop down a tier to companies that only need a 3.0-3.3. So the idea that you can apply some kind of blanket criteria to even define "a GPA that is needed for a job" makes no sense at all.[/quote]
