[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have an upcoming '26 grad from a good school, econ major with excellent grades. Good internships last summer that did not translate into what he thinks he wants to do for first job. Has sent out I don't know how many resumes, had two interviews and no job offer yet. Lots of comments about the state of the economy and how "hard" it is. But what drives me insane: He is fixated on one or two major cities where he "must" start his career. He is fixated on what I think is a narrow field of jobs. He, like OP's kid, is going to learn the hard way that not everyone starts out with a glamorous first job in their first choice city. But it's a big, big country with a lot of opportunities. There are a LOT of cities where these kids could be happy for a year or two or three. I'm tired of the whining and refuse to indulge it.[/quote] This. I wonder how many of the "unemployed" grads are doing the same thing as your DC.[/quote]
