[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't know what you mean by Average College. But a kid with internships at FAANG, F500, IB, Consulting is going to get more attention than a kid with summer jobs at the pool. Both will end up fine 10 years down the road but one good internship leads to another, and leads to a solid first job so internships pave the path.[/quote] Most college kids don't have FAANG internships, they have nepo internships like OP's husband is proposing. They are probably better than nothing, but when we hire new grads, we prefer real internships or real jobs to a month of take your kid to work day [/quote] How can you tell it’s a nepo internship? My DH got my DD’s friends internships at a well known financial services company. They were paid and did actual work (and we loved by the employees because they were great workers). But there is 100% no way they would have gotten the internships without his help (internships had already closed).[/quote]
