The job market still sucks, won’t deny that, but if you have a 3.8 GPA in engineering and you didn’t even get interviews that’s on you. No sugarcoating.

2.9, took 5 years, yet had an internship every summer, last internship turned into a job. Skills > Grades

i did 350 applications last cycle and had a national lab internship lined up but it got cancelled due to doge cuts. i went to fairs, i talked, networked and did everything i was supposed to and still ended up with nothing. some of my friends cold emailed companies and got one after like 3 attempts. to say its not luck based is crazy. Yes, networking increases your chances, but at the end of the day you still have to be in the right places at the right time.

It's not really a cope. It's just the reality of the job market rn

Horrible that on top of completing one of the hardest and most time consuming degrees available you have to spend hours applying for internships and networking or you’ll never land a job

The fact that you need to have connections in the first place is how you know the job market is ass and this isn't a meritocracy system.

If you aren’t networking, getting internships, earning certificates, building side projects, or doing anything that sets you apart, why should an employer choose you over someone that is? Grades matter but they’re not the only thing employers look at.

I got a 3.6, saw some kid with a company truck from my school, asked if his dad is hiring interns, he said yeah, sent in a resume, and that was that. Talk to people. Boss said he didn’t even open the resume cause the friend vouched.

If they dont have any internships or worthwhile projects Im not surprised at all. Classes don’t get you a job anymore, and while the students bear primary responsibility for resume building and networking while at university, I still sympathize with those who didn’t realize how important those things were in time, particularly first gen students who are often being misinformed

Gpa nowadays don’t actual point that you’re great in school. Universities don’t ever change quizzes/exams questions so students just get all As by copying all the work from a friend that took the same course a previous semester, which sucks.

Getting an engineering degree without an internship and a high gpa is like buying an ice cream cone and just getting the cone with sprinkles.

Answer is do research you’ll get offers on the spot when you go to conferences
