When does lack of work experience become detrimental to one's chances of getting a job?

I am struggling to find a job this summer, and wherever I look, the employer requires me to have at least a year of prior experience. Should I still apply to those jobs with hope that they'll hire me? #jobs #job #experience #work #hiring

What percent of the material you learned in college do you feel you actually use in your field of work?

I am curious how others have applied what they have learned to their current jobs and/or internships. #major #work #learning

For a college graduate: If you could go back to your freshman year of college, what is one thing you wish you would have known, and one thing that you would do differently?

Why is it important to consider smaller colleges that are not commonly mentioned or are less popular than, say, Ivy League institutions?

Many prospective college students aim to apply to colleges with a name that is popular and more known. However, experts mention that smaller colleges can provide the same, or better, environment for students to learn. May someone clarify how this can be? #college #education #learning-environment

what is the chance of getting a job graduating from Nascar technical institute?

this year i am going to NTI and I was wondering since its only a year long to complete is it still just as likely for an employer to just over look me compared to someone that went to a 4 year college? #school #colleges #automotive #high-performance-cars #automotive-technician

How did you know which major was right for you? When did you figure out what you wanted to do when you got older?

I am asking this question because I have no idea what I want to do when I grow up. I am a little nervous that I will make the wrong decision.
