Graduating with a 2.97 GPA...

<p>My son is an EE major at UDel. He will end up with a 2.97 GPA when he graduates this spring. His engineering GPA is actually a 3.2 (he had a horrible first year) He had a great internship/research thing this past summer and was hired to continue during his senior year. He has worked 15-20 hours/week throughout school. He has tremendous worth ethic and anyone who hires him will be glad they took the chance. How should he proceed? He works closely with the career center and has sent out many resumes, but thus far no job offers. He's willing to go anywhere in the US and do just about anything to get his foot in the door, but he's a little frustrated. Any helpful guidance would be much appreciated. Thanks</p>

<p>Mods, Can you move this to the parents forum? I posted in the wrong place. Thanks</p>

<p>He needs to apply in the Huntsville Alabama area. Some of the high tech companies in Cummings Research Park are hiring.</p>

<p>Do not be discouraged. The recruiting season is still going strong. As the economy is picking up in 2011, there will be more hiring. He needs to cast the net wide and not be restricted by industry nor geographical location. Continue to work with his school’s Career Center and he will do fine. Best wishes and Happy New Year.</p>
