Student Success Stories
Following are success stories from college students and recent grads:
I must tell you that although there are ENDLESS numbers of sites that appear similar to yours, CollegeGrad.com blows them all out of the water. No comparison.
- Jennifer Lilly, Huntsville, Alabama
By far the best job search site for college grads. The details are what set it apart. It has given me insight as to how to approach the coming job search. THANK YOU!
- Kevin Smith, Buffalo, New York
I wanted to let you know of the profound impact CollegeGrad.com had upon my post-college graduation job search. Originally, my job search had been a struggle for a variety of reasons. After reading the information at your site, I not only found the inspiration to start looking for jobs skillfully, but also had a variety of ingenious tactics to employ while hunting. The infinite phone call tactics you exposed worked perfectly, and often got me through to important people who were looking to hire. In the end, I graduated from the University of Michigan with a job at a consulting firm already secured. Thank you for your site full of wonderful ideas. I have told all of my friends about CollegeGrad.com. Everybody loves it!
- Greg Ekker, Sharon, Pennsylvania
I followed the information at CollegeGrad.com almost exclusively, and I have eight interviews in the works (some are second interviews). One company said they called me in because it was the best resume and cover letter he had seen in ten years. Thanks a million!
- Dan Roberts, Boston, Massachusetts
An amazing site. I learned a lot of techniques on how to find an entry level job. These techniques are easy to learn, but difficult to find on my own. I love this site!
- Hua Shuxin, San Francisco, California
By far the best site on job hunting!!!
- Patrick Kokorian, Coral Gables, Florida
CollegeGrad.com made the difference in getting my job offer. Because of your techniques, I stayed in touch with the company I really wanted to work for. And it turns out that the guy they originally wanted declined the offer. So I received an offer and accepted. I just wanted to thank you for the inspiring site, because I would have given up if it wasn't for the information at your site.
- Kendrick Glenn, Bedford Heights, Ohio
Absolutely excellent. What I have read has opened my eyes. I have a new sense of confidence in myself. I believe now that I have the ability to find the "perfect" job.
- Ryan Redfield, Lexington, Kentucky
The best source of useful information available to recent grads, bar none.
- Jonas Salganik, Brooklyn, New York
A very valuable tool that should be given to every college student when they step onto the college campus. I wish I would have discovered this tool 4 years ago! Thank you for the knowledge!
- Kristina Dixon, University of California-Berkeley graduate, Alta Loma, California
Without your detailed explanations and suggestions on how to prepare for interviews, I would still be searching for my first real job. I was turned down 3 times by companies where I was qualified to do the job. I was at the point of giving up. You don't know how happy I was to find your site. You have given me the opportunity of a lifetime to work for Hewlett Packard. Without this book, I would probably have been eaten alive by the five person interview. Thank you again from the bottom of my heart!
- Mark Pham, Milpitas, California
Several tactics made a huge difference in my job search. I finally got a job at a CBS affiliate. So thanks to your help, I can continue my life after college.
- Mark Yost, Greenville, South Carolina
When I graduated, I did not have a job lined up. I spent about a month looking before my mother stumbled upon your site and told me about it. Within a month, using your techniques, I secured six interviews that resulted in two job offers (and I had to cancel three of the remaining six). The techniques presented for interviewing really gave me a lot of confidence. Thanks again.
- Mario Napoli, Clinical Programmer Analyst, Agouron Pharmaceuticals
Thank you very much for your great site. It is full of wisdom and good spirit. Because of your site, I had a thorough presentation for my accounting entry level job hunting. Last week I got a job offer from Ernst & Young. I am very happy. Your book helped me get ahead of most of my classmates.
- Vivian Liu, Jackson Heights, New York
Awesome! In fact, I would say life altering! Thank you!
- Maureen O'Brien, Glendale, Arizona
