Go through your local college/university. Check the finance/business college. Or better yet, see if they offer a financial planning major. Reach out to the Dean of the college and ask to be introduced to a couple professors/instructors who can then recommend a few students

What will they be doing for you?

Post an ad in local college student news paper

Go to high school or college guidance counselors, they are hungry to place students and shouldn’t cost you anything except your staffs time.

Interviewed for a sr. PM last Thursday. Was scheduled for 30min but we went to an hour and had a really good conversation.

I felt really good coming out of it but then followed up with an email thanking them for the time the next day and I never received a response or next steps. Am I thinking too much into it or is it not a good sign?
