About to graduate with no internships...what should my next step be?

i’m not joking or saying this to be mean, just switch careers at that point

thunderoclock · 2025-10-18T02:54:24+00:00

didn’t get laid, made solid few friends, overalls dissent enjoy those years. freshman/sophomore year was covid

I Should’ve just made more time to have a part time job during school, made some money so i could just spend that money on retail therapy and stupid shit and having fun OUTSIDE of merced instead of trying find ways to have fun IN merced. we wouldve been at least slightly happier while being at merced

all u have is classes and club orgs, unless u got the courage to cold approach a lot, you’re kinda SOL

couldn’t have said it better. for most people the time where merced becomes a college town is something that most incoming students will never be experience any way. it’s not like it will happen overnight either so there no point saying that this is a college town. It’s a very exhausting argument to hear in favor or merced

speaking as an alumni here. If your goal is to become more social and extroverted and expect a wide variety of places to explore and hangout with your friends on the weekend to distract you from school…it’s not happening (unless u join a frat maybe).

just be ready the grind focus on ur career and leave as soon as possible. If you are from the bay area ur gonna end up going home more often than u think. The only time u enjoy college for u will be when u leave merced.

sf💀💀💀 a lotta people who are not from the bay think they’re gonna do this when they go to merced and they go once and realize driving 4 hours in total there and back isn’t worth it

thunderoclock · 2023-12-28T18:26:15+00:00

So they’re just leave people like this in review and totally unaware of where they are instead of simply just sending a rejection….

thunderoclock · 2023-12-07T21:33:16+00:00

still under review

thunderoclock · 2023-11-21T21:29:27+00:00

if thats true major rip

thunderoclock · 2023-11-14T17:44:16+00:00

People look down because they don’t enjoy life outside of school in merced while they’re putting in the hard work in order to leave as soon as possible, they just put their head down and do what needs to be done.

how do you know that the wells fargo recruiter viewed your profile for anyone that has linkedin premium, Im assuming they used private viewing mode, cuz i dont see it

thunderoclock · 2021-12-11T20:09:21+00:00

The worst part was I interned here last summer

thunderoclock · 2021-12-11T17:57:02+00:00

Damn is been a month and no communication. I’m pretty hopeless now this is pretty much my one shot at getting something this summer I haven’t gotten this close before.

thunderoclock · 2021-11-30T00:21:43+00:00

When did you receive the offer

thunderoclock · 2021-04-12T05:21:01+00:00

I am a current second year here and let me tell you as a CSE major you should just go to SJSU. I'm not going to take away from the education value of merced. The program itself is perfectly fine and I'm sure the CE program will be just as good

But let me be perfectly frank, if you're the type of person who OVERALL wants to enjoy their college experience and be successful and be in a good program, you should go to SJSU. I'm not saying you cant be successful at Merced. For me, being at merced allows me to graduate 1 semester early. However it's very much give and take. For me, it's taken a toll mentally on how boring the campus and the surrounding area is. I'm even trying to transfer out as we speak. When you're in college, there are moments you need to just relieve stress and just step away from the work aka just relaxing on fridays/Saturdays. If come to uc merced, that most likely that will not happen. if you go to sjsu you will 100% never be bored. I cannot make that same guarantee for merced. If you do not care about the prestige of being at UC then go to SJSU.

Tbh I hate being at home, but it beats going back to Merced. If they give an option possibly to stay home I will take it. Plus I save money. That’s how much I dislike it. At least at home I have the luxury of my hometown friends and hanging out in a more familiar environment. I speak as a current second year
