Question . My DC is only a college freshman so just curious is this the general time of the semester that a college senior should have a job lined up?I’ve heard that  Hopefully internships turn into offers.

It took me awhile to find my first “real “ job post graduation in the early 90s. Bad timing lol.

A good job should have been lined up by August 2023. Riding senior summer interns are offered full time positions the last week or two of the summer gig. Then they can still look for other offers if they want but they are always holding that offer. Moving back home and being an unemployed lazy ass all summer is nonsense.[/quote]

That's the most ridiculous piece of nonsense about college that I've ever heard. No, it doesn't work like that.[/quote]

DP. No yeah. It TOTALLY WORKS LIKE THAT.[/quote]

+2.

The progression is unpaid internship freshman summer, then better unpaid internship or low key paid internship sophomore summer, then paid internship junior summer that converts to FT job after graduation.  Or, people apply to grad school for the Fall following graduation. [/quote]

Not every field works like that and I hate when people on this board only value those kind of corporate type jobs. [/quote]

You may have a point, but describing this progression, which is very real for may types of jobs, is not “ridiculous nonsense.”[/quote]
