With May almost here, once again thousands of young adults who have worked hard for 4 years to get their degree are graduating, and facing the harsh reality of our economy. It is not easy getting a job right now. And it’s even harder to get job in the exact field you studied in college. [...]
Our Summer interns are wrapping up their last two weeks with us. We’re very sad to see them go — they’ve been rock stars since day one, and we’ll miss them terribly.
