What Companies Value Most
GPA is important, but it is not the only factor that your potential employers will consider. Companies are willing to hire people with rich experience in their respective industries. For American companies, community service, campus activities and volunteer work are also very important.
Aside from that, you should also be working on your interpersonal skills, language proficiency and professional skills. Always be prepared!
Good luck to everyone!
