[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Did she try to find an internship? Mine did and sent out tons of resumes and applications. He had one interview from all of that effort and no offer. He is back working for event services at his university. His friends who graduated this year are either doing internships or looking for work.[/quote] OP’s niece did nothing. The niece sounds like a lazy kid and comments are conflating no effort with kids who networked, blasted out 100 resumes, coffee chats, career fairs, met with professors, and interviewed since last fall yet struck out. The most competitive internship interviews for the following summer are conducted from August-October, upwards of 10 months before internships even begin. I guess people are suggesting when OP’s niece is asked, she ought to lie and claim she’s lifeguarding every summer after striking out on a real internship. That’s super ethical. [/quote]
