Utilize available campus resources and always be prepared. My university had a ton of career fairs and networking events. They usually post what companies are going out and sometimes what majors they are looking for. There were even pop-up recruiting booths. Use the school’s career portal and LinkedIn to apply!

1) I always carry 3-5 physical copies of my updated resume and a suit in my car - just in case
2) Every career fair, I select 5-15 companies I would like to speak to. Do my research, have questions, and go network. I ask for their contact information to email them after.
3) Keep up with the trends and do some side projects. When I was recruiting, PowerBI was just started popping. I learned about it and created a (useless) dashboard. Surprisingly, people liked it.

He/she practices cases for fun

You transfer out of NC state to a better school after getting good grades.

The university should have job/internship fairs. Those should be a start.

Hello everyone!
What would you choose between P&G, pwC and a small consulting firm for a data science internship. The three positions are based in Paris and in data science, I have to take a decision this week and I'm completely lost :/
I don't have any clear idea about what I would like to do after (sometimes I think about a phd but others I prefer consulting...)
Thank you so much for your help

Hi everyone, I am looking for advice on getting to the same company but in a different country. I had an internship at multinational FMCG company in purchasing in country 1 (5 ys ago). I then went studying abroad to country 2 and stayed doing the jobs which came with the visa - sales/accounting/marketing but all for really small companies (20 e-s max). I keep dreaming about getting back to FMCG co but in country 2. Applied directly/chatted to ex coworkers in country 1 - no luck. Any advice?

Advice requested: When you were a legal intern or a summer, what type of projects did you like best? What was most helpful to you when you received a new assignment? Anything you wish your mentor did/didn’t do? I’m working with my first ever intern and trying to structure projects so they know that the work is important and relevant to the business, and why, and to provide enough background info on the area of law so they don’t spin wheels on the basics. What else should I be doing?

Looking for practical advice on improving my attitude to work.

So imagine an imaginary scale where 0 is the worst piece of work a studio could produce and 10 is the best possible outcome.

As an animator working in an agency, I normally end up involved in projects towards the end, so by the time I get my hands on a project I can add between 1 and 3 depending on how much effort I put in.

If a project is a 3 when I get it, how do I summon the energy to make it a 6 that I could to make a 7 a 10?
