Sometimes even an hour. But the interview is typically over in just five minutes. In that first five minutes of the interview, I will have […]

If you read the story about the GW gymnastics team in last Thursday’s edition of The Hatchet (God bless those who did), you may have noticed the many times the word “hit” was used. Nearly every member of the team quoted in the story talked about how they wanted to “hit” this weekend at the […]

Summer is right around the corner, and if you are looking to earn extra money, temporary work may be right for you. With the unemployment rate at a 30-year low, college students are in demand.
