[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Name the field of study?? We can be more helpful if you narrow between say Marketing vs Social Service sector. I do think you are going to help him land an internship and then his first job. So maybe start seeing that clearly as opposed to hoping for something else to happen [/quote]

OP here. Thank you everyone for the replies. He's in International Affairs, in DC. Wouldn't it be like shooting fish in a barrel? That's why I paid for a college in that location...

The study abroad program was a finite, structured event that was prominently described by his college, and so I think he had no trouble understanding the benefits and following application directions. But the nebulousness of not knowing where to look for an internship, when he has no friends and doesn't talk to his professors, is I believe what's tripping him up.

Doesn't his college have a career services office? This is what they are for, he needs to go there and use their resources for finding an internship.[/quote]
