Helped a bunch of undergrads to get in. Most were thankless little shits. Never again.

Good friends. Helped them get in (at a time like this). Not that I expected anything in return. But the last thing you expect is a change in attitude.

I have ppl go through a trail.. Have them read a case handbook, re-do Linkedin (something that requires effort) and if they do well then I usually make introductions without giving up EQ and remain very hands off. Been bit a few times before 😔

More details?

Wow that sucks... Sorry dude

Guess you know that they weren't really your friends then?

tough. sounds like they might be good at playing the game (ie: they could either make you look good/bad in the future). id say dont go out of your way to help them again (they're ovbs not real friends) but dont burn any bridges just yet.

Not worth it OP. Don't waste your time on someone like that. Sounds like they were pretending to be your friend for the [professional] benefits.

Yes!!! Happened to me too, ugh. I feel your pain, OP. Undergrads can be so ungrateful 😒

Oh KPMG, in this case it was Grad Students.

Even worse - they feel even more entitled then
