[quote=Anonymous]How do college students get internships these days? Is it primarily through their college career services office and the events/introductions they organize? Was talking to one of my kids and was surprised that random job boards are primarily used by he/she and his/her friends. Its been years since I had to go through the process but I went to a few events organized by the school and a few months later got a t-5 investment banking job, no connections/no experience/grades weren't even that stellar - seems things are a lot tougher these days but not sure. I don't want to be "that parent" that gets the kid a direct internship but is that realistically what happens these days? Personal connections over an open process? [/quote]
