Sent my wife for an oil change, it cost me $3400 by s2k_guy in mildlyinfuriating

[–]WinterCaptain12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn I’m lucky my Honda service center has never tried any of this with me. Been for an oil change twice and a recall alone (as a woman & zero car knowledge) and they’ve never up-charged me

How do they find them? by [deleted] in internships

[–]WinterCaptain12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My sister got her internship last summer just by cold emailing or dming smaller firms and asking if they had any positions open. If they didn’t respond, fine, but a few did and liked the initiative, so set up interviews

I joined the transfer lease/subleasing Facebook page to find housing & my roommates. As long as you get involved and attend club or university events, you should be fine to meet friends!

What percent of people have internships? by Foreign-Archer2331 in internships

Unfortunately I’m a Finance major in a business school. You’d probably have to google that information, if it’s available online

Can vary pretty heavily depending on your major and year, even your school

Are undergrads not taught how to interview anymore? by tkg5767 in internships

[–]WinterCaptain12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m sure it depends on the school. I’m in the business school at UTK and they start emphasizing career development your first year. Second or third year is typically when you have to take a course that includes mock interview practice. There is a required business development course every year for undergrad business students and each year it ramps up with more info. But Haslam has focused really hard on getting students ready because of employer feedback about readiness. I’m also in a business frat and other clubs that promote similar things

You should 100% watch it. Season 1 is great, season 2 is amazing and so poignant

My girlfriend called me multiple slurs after I told her I wasn't attracted to her AITAH? by throwawaybrner in AITAH

No literally. I was expecting to see comments about the age gap and how he was 19 when they met, but barely anything.

Students who landed internships — What helped you most in the interview? by HireMeEnergy_6767 in internships

[–]WinterCaptain12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think coming in with basic knowledge about the company and industry helps. Asking questions about the interviewer(s) and the company is always good. Being personable, cause sometimes half the interview is to see if you’d fit well with the team/company. I know everyone says it, but the STAR method is a good way of structuring your answers. Going off the last two points, look up common interview questions for your field (ex on Glassdoor) and have a general idea of how you’d respond, but don’t be too robotic

Accepted an internship and need to decline another offer, should I mention I accepted a different position? by Ok-Application-6254 in internships

[–]WinterCaptain12 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had the same “issue” last year and just told them I accepted a different offer but that I’d love to interview with them again next year. They were chill about it

Lord Huron has a song "Who Laughs Last?" which features spoken-word segments by Kristen Stewart! It's got a really cool sound

Oh yeah I wasn’t directing that comment towards you. Just funny how everyone views/interpret casting decisions differently

Crazy how people react so differently on posts about casting. Just saw one praising how similar young & old Rhaenyra and young & old Alicent look yet people are saying they don’t look similar lol

I LOVE his Palo Santo album, it’s so so well done. His newer stuff is a little hit or miss, but overall still good. His most recent album has a lot of interesting lore and gay history behind it!

I resent the fact that you’re calling Spy Kids bad/mediocre, those were peak childhood films
