[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm sure the OP is a troll. Peace Corps is a job. You're not just sitting around doing nothing. I'm sure most people who went through the Peace Corps went on to grad school too. This is very normal. The Peace Corps, as valuable as it is itself, isn't necessarily something that translates well into myriad of opportunities afterwards, especially outside the NGO sector. But even the NGO sector is demanding graduate degrees for advanced roles. What did the OP (if he's real) expect, that his son finish the Peace Corps and then go home and working in a marketing role (if he could find one)? Or some generic job? Or as a barista? [/quote] I have to say, my kid did the Corps then came back to DC and landed a great job with a nonprofit right away and now makes a very good living. Doing good and doing well. [/quote]
