When going for a job interview after just graduating college, is it necessary to bring your college transcript

I was already asked my GPA in a phone interview and now i'm going for an in-person interview. By the way, the position is for a C++ programmer. I really hope I don't have to bring my transcript as I do have 2 D's and a few C's

When going for a job interview after just graduating college, is it necessary to bring your college transcript
Most jobs do not require a transcript. A company will request one if needed. Just take your resume, take a back-up in case they misplaced the first one you sent. Just to show you are prepared. Also a list of references on a seperate page. 3-4 references.
Reply:Better to be prepared then say "I don't have it with me."


Have a folder with you with recommendations/papers sectioned out for easy access. That way if they ask for it, you will not have to sort for it and can just hand it to them. This will make you look organized, prepared and through.
Reply:why worry?


the subjects where you have D and C - is it C++?





If you have D and C in Latin and Religion, why worry?
Reply:it is not necessary to bring transcript. they know that you're fresh out of college, so they will contact your school if they really want to get one. i think they're more interested in your C++ skill, so if you have some kind of portfolio that illustrate your skill that will be best, something like a student project or website that you had a hand in would be good. remember to thank them for interviewing and drop them a thank you card in the mail box after you walk out of the building.
