So, are cooling expectations, or hyping him up lol
I think he"s a surprise in your Cracker Jack's box.

Anybody remember that as a kid?

Getting the box and digging in to see what you had?

Then you either liked it or traded with somebody..

but point is you don't know what you have yet.

Thats Jaylon.

And I aint trading yet.

I think we might be talking about different kinds of fraternities....

Listing your drinking frat, you are correct.

Listing your engineering fraternity to demonstrate a lifelong interest in the field? You are wrong. And to punish someone for thinking that indicating a life long interest in the field would be meaningful to an employer is dumb.

If I'm hiring a business school graduate and I see Delta Sigma Pi, I know that this person has been interested in joining the field for at least 6 years and is has a decent chance of integrating well into the business environment. Even if that's not true, there is literally no reason to hold that against them.

Frankly you are full of it as regards your so called engineering fraternity. Outside of your little world I can pretty much guarantee that anyone talking about a fraternity will believe that is phi slamma jamma or something like that.

We have a policy that if you list your fraternity/sorority on your resume, we immediately throw it in the trash. We don't care who got drunk with or what letters you wore to meet freshman girls at mixers.

College is critically important (we require an MBA for most positions), but after you've worked for a couple of years, I really don't care about the details of your college experience anymore. I care about what you know NOW that's useful, and how hard you will work. Young graduates so overrate their degrees these days, and they come in expecting to be fawned over because they graduated college. Whoopty-freaking-do.

The exception would be if you graduated Summa Cum Laude, or if you interned over sees or something. That is very impressive to us, especially if you took on a leadership role.

These days, 90 percent of degrees are completely useless. Schools are inventing degrees. I had an applicant just a couple of months ago that graduated with a degree in Egyptology. Apologies if that was one of you, lol.

I'm not following you.......lol......you think he lists his fraternity on his resume lol?

Frankly the fact that you're ignorant about things that happen in industries you don't participate in is neither surprising nor worthy of your outrage. Carry on random person.
