Hey

I guess I have to rent a car for the majority of my interviews. Ive looking up prices and good lord!!!!I dont have that kind of cash to throw around.

Does anyone know of any companies or tips to rent a car for cheap?

I hate the fact that I have to pay a buttload because Im not over 25.

Ive found some discount codes that made it somewhat reasonable but still.....

Thanks

Hmm.. Could you take a cab instead of renting a car for some of these interviews??

yeah, how come a rental car? I would think a lot of interviews would do fine with cabs, not all but quite a few

Some of my interviews i have to stay in a hotel. So airport to hotel. hotel to school. school to airport. alot of money and hassle for a cab.

I was hoping come hotels will do shuttle to airport...I havent made that many arrangments, it depends on the hotels but are many people finding this is not true?

what are the discounts? really interested...

There are a lot of coupons/codes online - some codes waive the under 25 charge.

In my experience if you ask a rental car company to waive the 'under 25 charge' they will usually do it. Enterprise is a good one. You could always hitchhike as well.

I wouldnt advise hitching in a suit and trying to look professional. It will only stress you out because you will be afraid that noone will pick you up and you never know what can go wrong while hitching.

call your insurance agent and get a discount code from them, usually most big insurance companies have them, I got one for 25% off with enterprise.

My friend just had all of his possessions stolen while hitchhiking. His laptop, suit, best clothes, wallet, passport.. He had an international passport, so now he can't even leave the country. Think you're saving a lot of money by hitching? It might cost you a fortune..

Hey guys

I think best i could do was search online for car rental discount codes. I think the big deal is the under 25 fee which is sometimes 25 dollars per day. Try to find one that gets that waived off. I guess you have to do a little googling to find these codes. good luck. Let me know what codes you used. Ill be searching too.

Just in case anyone took my "hitchhiking" advice seriously, it was just a joke. That would probably be the worst way to try to get to an interview. You could always rollerblade?
