OP, I’m a Michigan Ross Alum and a Partner at a consulting firm. Let’s figure a way for me to connect with you or your son. At minimal, I can help him polish resume and discuss job search strategy.

I haven’t read all the posts, what type of function or industry is he pursuing?[/quote]

Please let us know if the OP contacts you. I’m still thinking this might be a troll posting. [/quote]

OP here.  I hate it when people say “troll posting” without having facts.

DS had internships in his sophomore and junior year, and received a full time position upon graduation.  However, the offer was rescinded due to the company ran out of VC funding.  He received another offer in December but it was cancelled because the whole department got layoffs.  He reached out to several of his mentors who were Ross alum for advice and resume read.  Two of them were fired because they were on probationary federal employees.

DS has been researching/applying for jobs as a full time job in itself, but he is not having much luck.  Two of his friends from Ross are also currently jobless.  He is looking for positions all over the country.  His cousin graduated from Ross last year, and worked for Intel.  He was informed by his manager that he will be layoffs in two weeks.[/quote]

Your first post was made around 10.00 AM. Your next post was made 10 hours later.  Hard to have facts when they aren’t forthcoming in a timely manner. That’s was why some were suspicious of the authenticity of your original statement. You also made it sound like your DS was only looking for work locally in the DMV. He still is in Ann Arbor, since graduation is next weekend, which also brought confusion to some of us. I wish him well in his search. [/quote]

I wish this site would have an edit button.  Obviously I misread your original statement about looking for work only in the DMV.  Once again, best wishes for your son.  I’m sure he will find what he’s looking for over time. [/quote]
