[quote=Anonymous]If he really is lazy, he probably also hasn’t been writing good cover letters with the resumes he has submitted. Since he has no internships, work or volunteer experience or it sounds like anything relevant to employers in his resume, he’ll need to write good cover letters that talk about some skill or course he’s taken that would actually apply to the job and distinguish him from probably hundreds of other resumes they will receive. Also, he might look into positions (not on his schools career services sites) in less popular (maybe mid-western or fly over places) where an ivy diploma would be much more uncommon and might help him get an interview. Because it sound like if he has to compete for his classmates for an interview he’s not going to be the one to get it.[/quote]
