Re: College students- summer jobs
If you aren't against it, I would suggest getting your feet wet by applying as a contractor. I did this for about two years as a contractor for a big network company - decent office type work (cubicles, etc) - good experience and resume builder.
Check out online, there are plenty of staffing agencies out there that are essentially contracting positions.Comment

Re: College students- summer jobs
I got a call back from some job on craigslist I applied to. It's some health supplement company that says they've been around for a year and are expanding into this area. The guy gave me a phone interview, and wants to meet tomorrow at Starbucks to talk more. I don't know what to expect, the ad was very vague, it just said "Health supplment business seeking to put together a team of qualified associates to expand CT division. Great for college students looking to gain experience and extra income"
And on the phone he didn't really tell me anything specific either, so I really don't know if this is legit or not, and if it is what they are looking for.Originally posted by Jay BilasThe question isn't whether UConn belongs with the elites, but over the last 20 years, whether the rest of the college basketball elite belongs with UConnComment

Re: College students- summer jobs
Don't have a paying job...but I'm an intern for a morning show. I can't do a job this summer since I'm taking 4 summer classes. Plus the internship will get me some contacts.Twitter

Re: College students- summer jobs
Can't find a job at all. I've gone around town just looking for places that say "hiring" out front, but there aren't any. So I've been going into places asking if they're hiring help for the summer, and they either say no, or you have to apply online. Then I apply online and just never hear back from them.Comment

It's really come down to either being extremely lucky to apply at the right time or have a connection to hook you up with a job. It's so tough and quite frankly, discouraging and frustrating when you send out tons of applications and not only don't find a job, but get no word or BS responses of "We're looking at them, we'll call you back." I've been into a few stores that claimed they had on the spot interviews, only for the manager to be 'out' that day or something along those lines.NHL - Philadelphia Flyers

Re: College students- summer jobs
College kids aren't listening. Go get either an internship, or find a staffing agency to become a contractor. Some contractor positions will hire you full time if you are exceptional.
Btw, anyone ever says anything about a "BUSINESS" opportunity. Run. If you guys ever need help with iffy people - check out whydowork.com - and go to the forums. You can do a search for pretty much any online/pyramid scam out there.Comment

Yup, pyramid scheme, and I don't even like coffee, so complete waste of time.Originally posted by Jay BilasThe question isn't whether UConn belongs with the elites, but over the last 20 years, whether the rest of the college basketball elite belongs with UConnComment

Re: College students- summer jobs
You guys really should have been applying for jobs at least 6 weeks prior to getting out of school. These days there are no 1 week call backs. You will be waiting at least a month or 2 before you get a call back.
Because basically...people getting summer jobs, applied for them in April.Comment
