need some help

<p>Son is freshman due home in 3 weeks. At this point, he does not have a job. He has
applied to 25+ jobs (waitering, landscaping etc., department stores which have advertised for seasonal help) and we (his parents) have talked to everyone we know regarding internships or any kind of job (which I know are really hard to get freshman summer). He has been looking since January and would take anything at this point. He is an engineering major. </p>

<p>He goes to a school where he will be placed in co-ops next year, so this should be the only summer we have to go thru this, but we really are at our wits end trying to figure out what for sure he can do. Any advice at all would be helpful.</p>

<p>I suggest you post this query on the Parents Forums- you’ll get a lot more response from other parents there.</p>
