[quote=Anonymous]Both DS and DD recently graduated on May '24 along with three other nieces and nephews:

- DS graduated from Ivy and still looking for a job, had internships in both sophomore and junior year,

- DD graduated from Duke and is still looking for a job,

- Nephew #1 graduated from JMU.  Received a job offer from a financial service because he was an athlete at JMU, and that job via athletic alumni,

- Nephew #2 graduated from UCLA; got a job offer from one of the political donor connections because he played music at one of the private fund-raising events, and made friends with several young people at the event.  Their parents are rich political donors,

Niece #1 graduated from UNC; got a job offer as a government contractor PM job because her father is a SES in the government,

Both DS and DD are still looking.  Without "networking" with decision makers, it is difficult to land a job these days.  They both now realized that it is not the school you attended, it is who you know that matters.  FWIW, nephew #1 is trying to leverage his skills to get both DS and DD a job where he is at.
