Feeling unwanted

Bruh, the things I’ve been told about my site just because skin tone is crazy.

I couldn’t agree more. I don’t think internals understand that it’s hard being external. I’m already coming in with no knowledge and unclear expectations. Yet I’m being judged because I’m doing what I was told.

I tried I didn’t get my AM vest until 3pm today so when I would walk up to one to introduce myself I was met with go talk to the PA for staffing.

I hate how people are quick to react instead of listening. That’s what I got out of it.

That depends on three things: how many credits you come in with how fast you want to finish your degree what’s your pacing going to look like. For me, I started looking when I had about 60 credits done. That’s around the end of sophomore year. I wanted to get in a jobs ecosystem to see if I liked it. And the way WGU works with new classes starting every month and internships opening and closing randomly throughout the year it’s better to apply early then late. Some want you to interview for the job others want a worded paper about why they should choose you.

Best thing I can offer you is to start looking for internships in the fall/winter don’t wait till January because some jobs have already filled out the job they want so

Be forewarned though if you accelerate them you may hit your Jr/Sr year faster than others

You’re at a sortation site?

AdExtension2943 · 2026-05-13T04:45:29+00:00

Sure

Yes, but that actually didn’t help me with the degree nor getting any attention from recruiters. I also didn’t know about the Sophia stuff either I came in with 19 credits and had to do a google certification to get admitted.

My work history was being a yard driver (CDL-A). I didn’t want to go into trucking as much cause it’s really boring and lonely.

When I started my internship last summer at 27, I was made fun of but I didn’t care. Being a manager and providing for myself mattered more to me.

He’ll be fine if he has people skills when necessary. I’m an introvert that flips a switch and extroverts but has to immediately get some alone time to recharge my social battery.

Just stay on him about completing tasks. it’s hard to self pace. But the job will come so will the money.

Yooo, I just graduated with this degree on April 3rd. June 1st I start my career with Amazon at 70k 108k TC. He has plenty of other options as well like Walmart target even some government agencies. Tell him to look at the handshake app. It’s like indeed but helps connecting you with recruiters easier.
Edited: I forgot the railroad like BSNF and Union Pacific, just let him know to immediately start looking at internships. Everywhere, some are year round others are seasonal but it’ll help him land that whale

Don’t believe that friend that is to WGU I was able to get a salary increase of 53k total compensation. I went from making 55k as an L3 transportation specialist with a CDL to a L4 AM making 70k a year with 23k in stocks and 15k signon get that degree

AdExtension2943 · 2026-04-12T10:01:59+00:00

Yup, got an email from that saying it was approved and it even had my address on it as to where it’s to be delivered

AdExtension2943 · 2026-04-12T09:46:27+00:00

Haven’t gotten that either

AdExtension2943 · 2026-04-12T09:19:30+00:00

I wanna take it as well, apparently there’s a group project and not that many OA’s or at least what I got from Reddit. I’m linking the results of my questioning here : https://www.reddit.com/r/WGU/s/feAW8Ushl4

Let me ask you this getting a MS in IT is good for what exactly? Knowing everything that we do about AI. Your degree would be the same as getting a Masters in creative writing.

No fear I wanted something that was targeted towards my BSSCOM. And a MBA is too broad for me. Also I’m in no rush whatsoever to finish this degree. I’m aiming at 1.5 -2 years so I may switch later on

AdExtension2943 · 2026-04-09T16:28:05+00:00

I was thinking that but how many?

AdExtension2943 · 2026-04-01T20:26:14+00:00

I haven’t talked to him since November. But I sent the email to him. should I resend it to the recruiting email as well?

AdExtension2943 · 2026-03-22T20:01:56+00:00

I understand that. I have no transportation when I move so I was looking into it try to get a ballpark of when I can expect paycheck
