[quote=Anonymous]My 20 year old college kid was hired back at his previous summer camp job two weeks ago. None of his internship applications, that he's started back in November, panned out. I think the DC area particularly has been hard hit by job cuts and hiring freezes, and there's a trickle down effect: some employees are taking jobs meant for college kids, and college kids are taking jobs meant for teens. It has probably nothing to do with your kid and his abilities or how he presented himself, OP. Does he have work experience? My kid got his first experience getting paid by neighbors to do various yardwork, pet sitting, etc, and put that on his resume when applying at businesses. It's a little late but he should keep looking, in case someone declines a post. [/quote]
