[quote=Anonymous]I don’t think OP is a troll. We know other kids in this situation. One thing kids and parents don’t think about is that ALL schools best place for jobs in their region. Going to Michigan works organically for jobs in the Midwest, but less so in the DMV. Yes, if the goal was to return to the DMV, UVA would have been the better financial and organic job pathway option. The key to success here is going to be networking and informational interviews. The kid may just want a job, but no one wants to hire someone who seems indifferent to an opportunity. The student needs to narrow their scope, hold genuine informational interviews with alumni, and hope that something breaks positive. Beware though, no alumni wants a call where the kid loses interest in the conversation the minute it’s clear there is no job available. You never know where good conversations lead, so be prepared, curious, and ready to ask for someone else the person might suggest that you talk to. [/quote]
