[quote=Anonymous]I used to hire our summer interns. I never interviewed a freshman who had the skills needed to be useful (and as a small company we did need our interns to be at least minimally useful). Either they your child and hadn’t taken the necessary classes yet or worse they were self taught and thought they knew everything but wrote appalling code. We very rarely got second years we could work with either. But we have hired third years who only had unpaid projects or retail jobs on their resumes the preceding summers. It’s not career ruining although I can understand why your child is disappointed. Good luck to them![/quote]
