First of all, I'd like to say congratulations on the job offer, and that you should most definitely take it. In this economy, nobody is really in a position to turn down good (or sometimes, even "bad") offers.
With that said, I find your above comment to be kind of ignorant and envious.
These "beautiful girls" who are getting jobs over you are getting offers for a good reason. They are probably more positive and personable than those people NOT getting the offers, and a positive attitude is something important to have around in public accounting. They are most likely confident, thus meaning that they would likely deliver good presentations to the client/partners. They are likely well-dressed - appearance is important, as we know. They likely have at least an above-average GPA, or else it is doubtful they would get any offer. They likely know how to **connect** and **network** better than those NOT getting the offers. Have you ever thought about what other qualifications they might have unrelated to their school work? Maybe they've had a couple industry accounting internships. Maybe they've worked part-time all throughout college. Maybe they've worked full-time. Maybe they're involved on campus and/or the community. Maybe, just maybe, they're a lot better qualified and well-rounded candidates than those people with the 4.0 GPA!! Ever thought about any of those things? It's unfair to judge beautiful girls getting offers. Because, at the end of the day, there is likely a legit reason they got hired over you. Don't hate on them because they're pretty. Don't judge without knowing all the facts. |
