One can only imagine how many in the tax dept. got aid off only to see the company advertising their job on CL for less money and no benefits.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5105599550180726935.post-8050281400103401732009-10-28T04:50:48.276-07:002009-10-28T04:50:48.276-07:00Big Tuna, that's harsh.

Allegedly (this is through someone that worked at a place I interned at) PWC had extended job offers to some graduating seniors in Accounting in Spring, but then due to the economy or new layoff policies, they yanked back those offers partway through the summer, leaving those students without any offers because they had already declined other ones and nobody was recruiting anymore.<br /><br />Also, from another source I heard that of the forty spring graduating Finance seniors from the University of Arizona, only four found full time Finance-related job offers.<br /><br />Again this is just what I heard through the grapevine.Big Tunahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03405869774737928924noreply@blogger.com
