[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Self selection. You will only hear from parents bragging about their kids. Most kids are having a hard time landing jobs.[/quote]

this^ my kid struggled a bit with internships but was gritty and landed tech presales with data / econ - $140k first year out and working on hottest AI initiative - happy as a clam in NYC.  Good lesson keep plugging, will be ton of rejection[/quote]
Doesn’t sound like he struggled. He’s making a 90th percentile first year out? I severely doubt this kid had problems getting a job.[/quote]

he worked for it - useless SLAC career center advised him to “reach out to family friends” to initiate job search.  65% have jobs from his class of 2024, which is pathetic for the $90k+ we paid.  Going thru it now with younger kid and we’ve learned valuable lessons.  He could’ve got the same job paying a fraction at state flagship[/quote]
You cannot get a job paying 140k coming out of a state school, unless it is Berkeley. Your child likely didn't take up appropriate campus resources and now you're retaliating against the college.[/quote]
