[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Northwestern is a great school for networking with alumni. I'm saying this kindly, but how does he have a masters with no relevant work experience or internships? What did he do during the summers throughout his 6 years of undergrad and grad school? Did he forge relationships with any professors or alumni that he can reach out to for mentorship or a research assistantship maybe to get something on his resume.[/quote] This! He needs to go to alumni networking events and talk to people. Also he needs to go to career services and get his resume looked over. He should have access to the career services job listings as well, which will be tailored for public policy jobs. 4 months is no reason to panic. 6 months should be about the norm. Of he has no job experience, then a year. It is about how conmected you are and previous work experience. [/quote]
