Recommendations
- Study Abroad! College is the only time you can do it for so long and so cheap.
- Go to career fairs and work hard to land yourself an internship, the first one is the hardest to get.- Explore all options but don’ t compromise what you have in doing so.- Be the best at whatever you do, and always surround yourself with people who are better.
- Remember all of your schooling! Even though 80 % of careers might not need you to remember much, you never know when you’ ll find yourself in the 20 % that need it all.
( I never thought I’ d end up on a team at Intel practicing exactly what I learned in college)
- Don’ t wait until the end of the semester to find an internship or job, and don’ t expect anything until you’ ve signed on the dotted line.
( I say this from experience after struggling to get my full time position and having a letter of intent retracted.)
