@bhs1978 - Good job to your kid!

my kiddo has 1 week left at his internship. He’s so unsure about it all. Of course he wants an offer for his ego and professional side. On the other hand, he’s not sure he wants to work there as his GF wants to move to far-away NYC. NO idea how to counsel him; an offer is a good thing. If he’s not offered a job, do you think he can ask why?

The internship was competitive; about 20 kids were hired mostly from midwest colleges. One kid from a big-name college was fired 2 weeks ago. Didnt know you could get fired from an internship! how would you ever explain that? do you get to count the experience on your resume?
