How We Helped:

Your Tips for Others:
- Make an effort to have fun throughout the process. Instead of going at interview prep alone, find a group of peers with similar ambitions and put in the hours together. Get on the phone with as many people as you can, not for facetime but to genuinely learn about your future position. Always remember that the person on the other line is a human too. Any joy you can bring to their day in your brief conversation will go a long way. Read the WSJ daily and have an opinion about current events.
What You’re Most Excited About:

Your Feelings in a Few Words:
