Guaranteed Job?

<p>How many of you did the "Guaranteed Job" registration yesterday? Any current students know if it generally works out well or not??? D did it and is one of the 500. Kinda funky though applying for a job without knowing what the job is.
Thoughts anyone???</p>

<p>I signed up for it and also was one of the first 500. I don;t think that was really considered an application though. I'm pretty sure those first 500 who sign up are invited to a job fair type thing and get to look around at the jobs available, talk to people who would be their boss, and accept a job offer on the spot. So, you get choices for what you will do rather than being blindly assigned a job.</p>

<p>so I guess then it is too late to sign up? I completely forgot what day it was, although I really had no idea how to sign up in the first place.</p>

<p>Job</a> Guarantee Program</p>

<p>There is the link. Click the sign up link in the middle of the page. It should still let you sign up, but I don't know if you would be in the first 500 or if the link closes when they have 500. It only opened on Wednesday at 3. I have no idea how much of a rush there would be so sign up, but It doesn't hurt to try.</p>

<p>missed it, I'm so depressed now. I really need a job :(.</p>

<p>dont worry...there r tons of jobs out there</p>

<p>Did you qualify for work study? If you did I think you still will get a job and yes, as Zouman said, there are tons of jobs on & near campus. Also check with your department to see if there is something in your field.</p>

<p>no, we didn't even qualify for aid but my mom will probably be getting laid off in about a year so I need to work. Also, I'm trying to save toward graduate school.</p>

<p>There probably are a ton of jobs but there are also a ton of students who want to work; hopefully I'll still find some openings.</p>

<p>believers- I was one of the 500 as well. It is odd having the guarantee and then no clue what you will do, the mystery is fun</p>

<p>I was one of the 500 guaranteed a job also. I won't mind a job doing anything as long as it isn't food service. I work at the food place in Target and it is so boring/pointless/hopeless that I honestly want to stick one of the metal thermometers through my skull. However, it has helped me realize that if I don't want to live the rest of my life working a job I hate then I need to buckle down in college!</p>
