Hi, I'm an MBA candidate at Sauder School of Business, UBC. I am trying to land an internship in tech, as my past life is from tech. But it's worse than speed dating, where not body wants to talk 2 u, LinkedIn is giving digital form of cold shoulder. Referral seems so tough in Canada, as if bounders only let their cousins in. Writing a cold email is like writing to Santa.

If any of u can help me find an internship as an MBA student in Canada, it will help me the most. I am new to the place.

I feel like I'm doing everything right, but my research is not getting the attention it deserves.

I've submitted papers to all the right journals, gone to all the right conferences, and published on all the right topics. Yet no one seems to care—no one's citing my work!

How do I get people to pay attention?

Hey everyone - I could do with some advice. Not sure what I am doing wrong, but I am having a hard time getting interview calls. I am trying to pivot from consulting to the industry and targeting project/program management roles. I have been doing this work for 7+ years now (total YOE 12 years) so certainly have the right skillset. I have tried a couple of referrals too but that didn’t help either. Any advice you guys could provide would be helpful. Thanks!
