Are introductory college classes actually meant to weed students out? Should I try to test out of them?
Hi! My name is Anina and I'm a high school senior interning at CareerVillage. I'm a little weak in Chemistry and Physics, which I know is terrible for a STEM major to be weak in. Should I take the introductory courses in these subjects when I go to college, or would I be better off studying on...
Is it ever appropriate to ask your interviewer why you were rejected for a job, so that you can improve next time?
Hi! My name is Anina and I'm a high school senior interning at CareerVillage. I've always wondered if this was ok, because when I get rejected from places, I don't know how to improve next time. #human-resources #resume #interviews
If the career you're passionate about doesn't make a lot of money for this area, should you switch careers or consider doing something else?
Hi! My name is Anina and I'm a high school senior interning at CareerVillage. One of my best friends used to want to be a certain career- until they read a list online that declared his area of choice as one of the "top 10 lowest paying jobs". He immediately changed his mind to marketing and...
I took an massive open online course, and passed. How do I put it on my resume?
Hi! My name is Anina and I'm a high school senior interning at Career Village. I've taken a few courses on Coursera before, but I don't know how to put them on my resume. Do I list Coursera or the university as the course provider, for example. Do I even put it in the education section? Should...
What kinds of questions are you asked in an interview for a cyber security engineering role?
I'd like to prepare for a job as an engineer at a computer security company, so I'm wondering what the interview process is like. What was your experience interviewing for an engineer role at a cyber security company? What advice do you have for an aspiring engineer (or aspiring engineer...
How can I become a professional snapchatter?

Why are bioengineering majors better than biology majors at the MCAT?
Hi! My name is Anina and I'm a high school senior interning at CareerVillage. When I ask this question, I'm referring to the chart linked. In it, a lot of majors are actually better at the MCAT than biology majors. How does that make sense, when biology majors have studied the subject in...
Why do engineering majors always worry about graduating on time?
Hi! My name is Anina and I'm a high school senior interning at CareerVillage. What is it about engineering that makes it so much more difficult to graduate on time? Is it actually hard to graduate on time, or is that just rumors and exaggeration? This is important to me, because I might switch...
How important is it that I get my degree in what I want my career to be in?
Hi! My name is Anina and I'm a high school senior interning at CareerVillage. I was personally wondering how important it was that your degree was related to the job you are applying for. Do certain jobs not care what major you graduated with? Do certain jobs care a lot? #college...
What is it like working as a racial minority in technical fields? Is it harder in any way?
Hi! My name is Anina and I'm a high school senior interning at Career Village. It's become a bit of a running joke between my friends and I that whenever a huge, end-of-term paper comes up in high school, I will inevitably write something about the lack of women and minorities in STEM. But as...

Do you recommend taking a gap year before medical school?
Hi! My name is Anina and I'm a high school senior interning at Career Village. I have a few friends who are starting to finish college, and the pre-meds seem to be evenly split between those who are applying to medical school, and those who are taking a gap year before applications. What are...
Is it smart to get a business degree along with my computer science degree?
Hi! My name is Anina and I'm a high school senior interning at Career Village. A few people have recommended that I concentrate in Business as well as Computer Science. Others have told me that business and entrepreneurship classes don't teach you much, and that I would be better off simply...
What is the best part about being a social worker?
Hi! My name is Anina and I'm a high school senior interning at CareerVillage. I have a fellow classmate who wants to become a social worker. I've heard that it's a "thankless" job. Why would they want to do it? What makes the job worth it? #social-work
Why should I learn about machine learning?
Hi! My name is Anina and I'm a high school senior interning at Career Village. Because I'm interested in computer science, I always hear people telling me to learn machine learning. Why should I do that, rather than just learn to be a better programmer in general? #technology #programming...
