I know you specialize in big 4, but do you think the
market is okay for
smaller firms as well?

As with the Big 4, smaller firms are scaling back as
well. Once again, the cutbacks aren't as bad as other
industries. You should interview with as many firms as
you can, small and large, and find the one that is right
for you.

I'm a junior business major at UC Berkeley and I recently applied for
summer internships but did not get a single interview. I have since
downloaded your ebook which has some great insights. One of the
reasons I think I didn't get an interview is because I didn't follow your tips
on getting your foot in the door. I don't think I even talked to a single
actual recruiter, just mostly new hires who hadn't even started working
yet. Another reason I think they passed on me, however, is because I feel
like I'm lacking in experience, especially compared to my classmates at
my highly competitive school. For the past 3 or so years I've been
working as a bartender to support myself and pay for school and between
work and school, I don't have much time for anything else. My GPA,
however, is very high.
Should I be very worried when recruiting for jobs comes around next
year? Or do you think it's mostly the economy mixed with the fact that I
didn't make a great impression on the people who mattered? Do firms
usually hire more people for actual jobs than for internships? And if I
don't get a job, how long should I wait before trying again?
Answers to these questions would be greatly appreciated!
