SO TRUE!!!! Graduation for me is within 43 days, and it is stressful looking for a job, especially with the economy being the way it is. Interning has always been the best way to network with other companies and the best learning experiences I have ever learned. I’m still hoping that everything will get better as the days get closer

I am will e-mail this to my son, who graduated with a Master’s in Business and Accounting, & still, is not working. Only at an occasional day at dad;s office as a temporary dental assistant.
He certainly needs to gain confidence. Sometimes, I feel a ‘positive” attitude can be quite a boost.
We live in a farm area. The closest “big” city would be the District of Columbia, or Annapolis.
Does one need to re-locate to a larger city for a career?

Thanks for this advice. Checked out the company website you work for. Cool place. I actually had to read Mr. Yaverbaum’s book this semester. While it was required reading and I had no choice, it was a refreshing perspective to much of what I have learned.
