Internships are a pain in my ass.

why is that

Employers should just accept my gpa as proof I will be an effective employee.

well that's an idiotic thought

wouldn't it be easier though? I sure would enjoy it.

do you just interview shitty, or you haven't been at that stage yet

Shit man. Your GPA pales in comparison to mine. Despite that, I would tell you to stick your GPA straight up your wazoo. Don't mean shit. Need to see you in action. Hero or goat. That's all I care about.

Nah, not there yet. Just building my resume. I still have a year left because I dicked around till I was almost 20 at county college.

Not confident I'll be passable in interviews, but we'll see. I'm going for a government job so the interview is probably slightly less important than in the private sector, but I'm pretty worried about it still. Have had an internship in government already so i'm looking into political internships for sept-dec. which will probably be a pain in the ass.

Why would a government job interview be less important than one in the private sector?

I think because it's one element of a very rigid rubric where a written test is often the biggest part, whereas in a private job a flunked interview will get you tossed off the bat

I'm sure that's just some situations, but I've heard for Philly librarians, the test is way bigger than the interview

Check with your insurance company, a lot of them do it free including mobile service

i think there is a $500 deductible, but thanks, I'll make sure that it's just for accidents
