[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC a sophomore at a top 5 college has no luck so far.[/quote] DS is a college junior and he will have an 11 weeks internship this summer for $55/hour at a tech company. Last year he got a $35/hour 11 weeks internship as a college sophomore. He got both internships through my BIL who is an SVP at the company. The company selected him over two CS candidates, one from UPenn and the other one from Brown. In summary, who you know will trump the top 5 colleges.[/quote] Idiots related to executives will always be chosen over more qualified candidates, nothing new there [/quote] This is definitely an ethics violation if your BIL did more than pass his resume along FYI. Hopefully the company won't find out until after he's hired your son on as a FT employee over more qualified candidates. :roll: [/quote]
