Job hunting is incredibly difficult, and it becomes even more of a challenge when you’re a first-generation student.  I am one of these first-gen students trying to get my life together before I walk across that stage in May.  My parents, while they both have a wealth of real-life knowledge, don’t have a wide variety of professional contacts that can help me score a job. I know my fellow first-gen students can relate to this, as it’s a normal thing for us to face.
