Bump
Interns are all about the same every year... motivated, smart kids, the bottom 20% will realize it's not for them and self-sort out like they do every year, but on average they are roughly the same every time. No reason to believe the 23 vs 24 interns would be materially different.
I guess the 2021 FT class was a bit weaker because of their lack of internship, but other than that it's just the same... every generation since the Romans has said those behind them are lazy/work less, just part of growing up. but the interns are not, as a class, better or worse year to year.
Solid response.
Seems about half of them actually have a head on their shoulders, and the other half is clueless
Too much forced diversity.
Diversity recruits got mad at this one
was waiting for someone to say this lmao
