How are we supposed to get industry experience otherwise?

Businesses aren’t hiring without a degree unless you have four years of industry experience to replace the degree.

Plus, we get an internship during college to get some of both.

Still don’t get hired after graduating.

It’s fucked!

You are supposed to either already have connections, or be forced to adapt your skills to create connections.

Ya know, they just want to make sure you’re one of them first and not one of the others

I honestly need to work more on my connecting. Hopefully not any time soon but that networking gives me hella anxiety
