Sign of our TimesCollege Graduate Job Interview:

Reaching the end of a job interview, the Human Resources Officer asks a young engineer fresh out of MIT, “And what starting salary are you looking for?”

The graduate replies, “In the region of $125,000 a year, depending on the benefits package.”

The interviewer inquires, “Well, what would you say to a package of five weeks’ vacation, 14 paid holidays, full medical and dental, company matching retirement fund to 50% of salary, and a company car leased every two years, say, a red Corvette?”

The confident young engineer sits up straight and says, “Wow! Are you kidding?”

The HR recruiter replies, “Yeah, but you started it.
