Default Re: Potential Internship this summer questions...

Thanks for the advice, I still don't know what I am going to do. I've talked to everyone I know, even my barber today. I am going to sleep on it and think more about it during class. I am leaning towards company B.

I don't think he will let me have anymore days because I already extended it to wednesday from monday.

I talked to Company A and the HR person there said some of the managers are taking a little longer to decide than normal and it will be by april 2nd.

get the number of someone who is actually relevant to the decision however you can and make them explictly clear that you would accept their offer but will have to withdraw if they can't tell you tomorrow.

Then follow through.

I'd be quite surprised if they don't actually accommodate you.

Never fall in love with a company.

It would be much better to work at company B than to return to job searching because you held out to get rejected by company A.

Well here is how things went...

This weekend I just found out that I will be graduating this summer(Heavy load this quarter and an online class in the summer). I remember company A saying you have to return to the school in the fall for one more quarter/semester in order to be eligible. So I called company A to verify that and it was true. It is not in stone yet that I will be graduating but I took Company B's offer and it should be a good summer. Thanks for the advice it helped me think things through a little more.
