I don't think it's extremely common to get career help from family members, because it's unusual (these days) that they would have been in a similar situation.

I don't think it's extremely common to get career help from family members, because it's unusual (these days) that they would have been in a similar situation. So that aspect of your situations seems normal to me.
I hope you can use your fellow students, and teachers, and other resources from the real university. That should be where a bunch of experts are.
- striking 11y agoAgreed. There are often career counsellors that can help you negotiate rates, and if a professor really likes you, he or she may even help you find a job or other opportunity. The bottom line is: don't be afraid to ask. They're all there to help you.
