[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A know a lot of 25 grads who are doing internships, since they could not find a job.  Unfortunately that trickles down to the college kids who now have less internship possibilities.[/quote]

How can they do internships after graduation?  Unless they're continuing on to grad school?[/quote]

We know 5 kids from a top-20 school who did internships after graduation -- it's because they didn't want to offer full employment. One got hired on but his start date got pushed back to February 2026. This is for a major company that has been in the news lately, and making lots of $$. [/quote]

I sincerely doubt this because internships are used by the companies to check out and entice upcoming talent. I’ve never heard of a post/grad intern. A company that can’t give an offer won’t do it or will retract. We saw this during Covid.[/quote]

This has always existed. Stringing along a recent grad is no different than taking a junior.
