your grade difinitely will give a good first impression to your future employer..most employeer will just ignore for ppl with low grade.. but it doesnt mean you cant get a good job..its just you have to work a lot harder to proof that you are worth for the company..

i have a friend, whose grade isnt so good, but he is very good in technical skills..so what he does, he bring along all his universiti's project during the interview and the interviewer was very impress with his work..guess what? he was hired.
