Job Rush
    #8057487 - 02/22/08 05:25 PM (15 years, 11 months ago)

Anyone else graduating in May? I'm in my senior year of a university right now, and I am getting slammed with interviews (7 in two weeks!). I'm running pretty ragged at this point, so this weekend was definitely needed.

Anyone else in this shitty/opportune situation?

I'm graduating in May, too, however I am not too worried about finding a job. Im not worried at all, actually. I know ill find one...engineering seems to have lots of openings. So, right now i'm going to focus most of my energy into doing every stick of homework and graduating, heh. That's priority number one. I'm in no hurry to join the hive.

Worse comes to worse i can live back at home or with my gf for a couple months.

I'm waiting to find the perfect job for ME. There are lots of bad jobs out there, and id hate to get stuck in something cause i was in a hurry or felt forced.

Very good point Colbadol. I haven't really had much luck with internships in the past, and even full time responses in the fall, so all of this sudden interest from companies sort of caught me off guard.

I am applying, but in the past I've had very poor results using the same method.  The way I figure it, even if I don't particularly like the job, it always help to have more interview experience.

I also don't want to graduate not having a job.  I'm not desperate by any means, but I do feel that I should be able to land a good job before the end of the semester.  Hopefully I'll have a tough choice of choosing from job offers that I actually WANT. :wink:
