STUDENT SPOTLIGHT
The career fair is something I look forward to. Pitt Business has done a phenomenal job at preparing us for post-graduation, and the career fair is just one step towards that preparation. Not only does is provide job opportunities, but it also gives us students the chance to network with companies that we may be unfamiliar with. After my first career fair, I left with skills and a new mindset that set me up for future success.
My favorite experience in CBA thus far was the New York City Trek this past February. It provided me with a realistic view of what my life could look like in NYC upon graduation. As a result of this trip, I pursued internships this upcoming summer in NYC and have accepted an internship offer with Cohn Reznick in NYC. It helped me see that NYC is truly a place I want to start my career.
