Firms typically don't collect transcripts during recruitment, so a recruiter won't know about your upward trend. This (the upward trend) is not something you want to go out of your way to highlight either. Try to take summer courses to boost it up further. You really wanna get to something like a 3.4 at the very least. Many kids from target apply with 3.7, 3.8, and higher.
Hey, thank you for your advice, the highest I can get it up to is a 3.6 in my college career as I completed half of my credit, going to a school in the city I know that I have to network my ass off and. Just talking to others, they told me you can still can in with heavy networking, wanted your hear yout thoughts on it, I go to non-target but we have a great alumni network. thank you !
just get it up more, its possible to get it to a 3.6 assuming you did half of credit hours so far
