[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have high school and middle school kids. Every time I mention to my husband that I am worried about their futures (they're good kids but average and not destined for HYS), he says things like "don't worry I will hook them up with internships." And "even if they decide to do something in a different field, a good internship can be a steppingstone and provide work experience, a reference" etc. He says he's been doing favors for people for a long time just for this purpose. Is this true, in your experience? A good internship makes up for an average college? [/quote] Internships matter regardless of whether you go to a top college or an 'average' college. Remember though, your resume gets you in the door. Whether or not you get the job will still depend on your performance at the interview relative to your competition. [/quote]
