What do you guys think that how many internship an undergraduate should have prior to graduation -- in order to survive in this crazy job market?

And,
What does employer focus on? The company size / name or the job duties?

If you are offered an internship in Alaska Air at this time, and you get stipend $1000 for 10-12 weeks full time job, what do you do?

Depends somewhat on your other options - can you get a summer job that pay more and gives you more relevant experience? It's hard to say given that we don't know your major, interests, the job you would be doing, etc.

Your main focus should be getting a full time job.

If you can't get that then get an internship.

The only reason i would take the internship over the full time job is if it was with a good company.
