Hi everyone, I’m a graduate student in Biotechnology at Johns Hopkins and I used to work at Grant Thornton. I’m hoping to build my career in consulting, strategy and advisory, and I’m starting to look for internship opportunities for 2026. To be honest, seeing how the job market is right now feels a bit overwhelming, and I’d really appreciate any advice or guidance on how to approach this, whether it’s tips on applications, networking, or just general direction. Thank you

I am starting a 4-months internship at a company B in January. However, I just heard from a company T that they will interview me for their full time position.

Company T is paying me way more (twice) than Company B. And I like company T more. However, they want me to start working in February if I get this position. If I end up getting the offer, I will have to quit my internship at Company B, almost immediately after I begin the internship.

Is this okay?

I know that my designs could be better if I could see how things are actually built but I get slapped in the face with “I need you in the office designing/drafting” or “there’s no budget to have you go out” and then sends an intern to inspect instead. I’m 5 yrs out of college. Any advice?

How do you all deal with the guilt of leaving a comany/ team? I have been working at Microsoft for 1 year now, and seriously considering moving.

Hence I find the job slightly unsatisfying, and that I could learn more elsewhere. However, I love the wlb, the team and company culture. The guilt stops my applying.
