Ah but does getting a first lower your chances of seducing a huge bottom ?

I got myself a 2:1 last week, and I'm rather happy to say that I walked into my first contract within 24 hours of leaving uni.

I've heard that about first before though, the whole 'no social life' thing, and I wasn't far off a first. imo its BS, if an employer thought I had no social life they hadn't read my CV beyond my grade!

You put your "Social Life" on your CV?

'kin amateur.

I always found that those who gots firsts had absolutely no friends and absolutely no social skills whatsoever.

And then you find yourself working in IT. Classic.

Isn't that because you only have a 3rd class degree in Tat Selling?

"Is competition for graduate jobs too tough?"

what the heck kind of question is that? Do they think there is a Government Office of Graduate Job Competition Toughness which has got too big for its boots and fixed the Competition Toughness Index at a punitive 4.5?

haha, no. but my mention of sporting success at university should give away a social aspect to life!

Suppose someone with a first was worried that potential employers/clients would assume they were antisocial uber-geeks.

Would they get into trouble if they were caught fibbing by claiming only a 2.2 on their CV.
